Thank you - That's what I'm coming to realize. I have just a thin, cork gasket glued to the glass. but as you say, there must be a much thicker gasket that goes between the chrome bezel & the chrome dash. Maybe I'll have to make one. Thanks again.

There is a gasket between the glass and the bezel. There also may be one between the body of the clock and the glass.

Does anyone have experience in this nasty job? My clock is running fine now, but when I try to reinstall it, there is a gap of about 1/4" between the glass and chrome bezel in the dash. Is there supposed to be a spacer of some sort in there so it doesn't rattle? Perhaps I didn't reassemble the parts in the correct order? I appears that I need a thick gasket of some sort between the clock face and the glass assembly? Would there be a parts list somewhere with a schematic showing the entire assembly? Thanks for any insights. The vehicle is a '47 Woodie.
