clock removal

Is there an easy way to remove the clock in my 69 Delta 88? The radio and a/c duct is out, but it's not clear how the clock comes out. I'd like to fix or replace it while the rest of the dashis gutted.

Will have to double check tomorrow night, but I'm pretty sure all you have to do is pull the gauge surround off to get to the clock. Been a while, but there should be a few screws both top and bottom of the panel.

When you get the clock out, I can fix it.

I can figure out that there are screws to remove from the clock face. I can see those from under the dash. I cannot see how to remove the gauge surround and I hesitate to guess as its not a readily available part.

How does that dash face come off?

Been @ 26 years since I've owned & tinkered with a 70.

But if I recall removal of the surround was pretty straight forward.

Should be 3 screws in the top of the surround centered over the (3) pods.

And another 3 screws at the bottom up under the recess/lip of the dash in approximately the same areas as the uppers or fairly close.

Thanks! That's what I needed to know. The screws are easy to locate, once you know what you're looking for.
