Is there interest in faces for a Bennett 155? These would be the ones for the Bennett computer/clock unit, not the Veeder-Root style. I found this old post http://www.oldgas.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=666369 and emailed Ron Scobie. He said it would take 10 to 15 pre-paid orders of $150.00 Please post and or contact Ron if you are interested. He does not do PMs, just email or phone call.

I could use the Veeder-Root style faces also. He never made them but maybe if there was enough interest he may be willing to do them.

I will start the list of two sets of each style face.

Great plan. I would order two sets, and possibly 4 sets. Thanks.

I talked to someone yesterday that would like a set. That puts us at seven sets. Any one else want a set. Maybe to put away for the future.

I remember when Ron had them in stock. The gut feeling in me told me to buy a set. I thought I would never need them, but now in the present day I could use a set.

I put them away for at least 10 years before I used them. They were great.

I talked to Ron yesterday about this run of faces. He has 2 or three guys who have expressed interest in the past but dont do computer and will contact them about purchasing a set. About ten sets have confirmed here. Please call Ron and confirm a set to get this going. I dont have anything and really need some.
