  I have an original clock in my '40 Ford. It does not work. I sent it to a good repair place, told me it had been cannibalized, main spring other parts taken out. Seems like my best option is to buy one of the advertised rebuilt clocks for around $350.

  If you want to keep it original, you have answered your own question.

  May be able to find repair parts to keep it working mechanically. The main spring should be a catalog item for a clock shop. Do the hands move with the knob? You could put some new parts on it and use it as a nice looking hole filler, have it converted to electric if it keeping time is important.

  Someone had a post that a windup. Westclock could be used for parts. Try searching the archives
