I need a light bulb socket for my 39 electric clock. Actually, it's the same West Haven model used in 37 & 38. It must have come off the wiring harness around the workbench of the guy repairing it, but he can't find it. Guess that says a lot about my soldering skills! Was wondering if anyone had an extra lying around?

John, Thanks!! Just sent the email with my address. Have a great 39 Chevy Day! Ralph.

John - you're the greatest. Installed my clock and not only is it ticking away, but thanks to you, there's light. The socket you sent was perfect! I really owe you - please let me know if you're ever in the WashDC area.

Now a couple of questions for anyone - The small minute hand is a bit loose and will slip if I hit a hard bump in the road. Any suggestions (besides avoid the bumps!)? Also, what color are the hands? I can see a bit of old gold paint but I've seen white hands in other pictures of the 37-39 clocks.

Thanks and take care!
