thank you Richard , it is very difficult to really say what green it is but that was the nearest i could get to it , under that it was bear metal, the other that has thrown me it has only the large speedo gauge and a smaller round amp meter , oil pressure, and water temp gauge with the round switch panel, where i have seen in most of oyd two large gauges one being speedo and the other containing oil pressure and amp meter , i wonder what you views are on this , pete
