How do I get gauges that match the FFR Platinum series? I've been all over Autometers web site and don't see any with that match. I'm wanting to add a trans temp gauge and don't see any with the chrome bezel, white face and black needle.

I was just on there as well and found the same thing. Wonder if they were discontinued. Maybe FFR had a bunch of sets in stock.

I bought some spares on Amazon. But I did find that you have to search for "auto meter platinum", NOT "autometer platinum"

These are the ones that came in my kit, assume they are still the ones shipping from FFR

Summit and Jegs quite often have them

Unfortunately, they don't offer a trans temp gauge in the Air Core

I thought autometer also has a custom build option, no?

When I lived in MA I’d go to the FFR open house to check out their cars and get the factory tour.
They had a number of parts for sale, one was an Autometer oil temp gauge w/sender. It was only $5, couldn’t pass it up.
Then years later after I bought the ‘33 I sent the gauge to Autometer to get the bezel changed. It’s not exactly the same as the gauges that came with the car, but’s it’s close.

I was on Auto Meter's site yesterday and if you search platinum gauges they come up but the add to cart button won't work. I was looking for a matching clock.

You can buy the AutoMeter Platinum clock from them. See my post in the electrical section. I didn't look for other Platinum series gauges but look by gauge type, not by series, and you may find what you are looking for.

I bought a matching clock for my truck build from Autometer a couple years ago. Exactly same style, color, bezel, etc. as the Factory Five gauges. Per my notes: "1986 2-1/16" clock, 12 hour, American Platinum." I don't remember if I was able to order off their website or had to call. I do know it was made to order (not a stock item) and took a couple months. BTW -- it's backlit (hear that Speedhut?) and keeps decent time.

I bought a matching clock for my truck build two years from Autometer a couple years ago. Exactly same style, color, bezel, etc. as the Factory Five gauges.

I just got an email from them and it's due to arrive on Friday, who knows?
