Hey folks im new here i have a 1960s torqometer snap on no longer makes parts for it. The dial is off but everything still works. Its a tq-420 3/4 i want to shine it up and restore it best i can. Any company that would do this? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated thank you.

Hello. I am also looking to restore/calibrate a Torqometer. I'm not sure of the age. My guess would be 1950's - 60's. I also contacted Snap on and they are unable to help me. The dial is sitting at 40 ftlbs. Please help!
Why aren't these images showing?

The dial on mine turns and you can zero it out.
These pop up on ebay regular and in decent shape. They're not overly priced, not sure if restoring it is worth the cost at this time.

Thanks. Mine has enormous sentimental value so I want to get it repaired.
