Quartz doesn't go tick,tick,tick. It's just a continuous motion. Looks out
of place in a 50s Mopar.

Why would you want to mess around with repairing the original old clock at
great expense which will eventually need rebuilding again down the road.
Just convert it to the quartz movement (which is transparent) at very
reasonable cost and will also last a life time. Just my 2 cents worth

Ted asked the below-referenced question, which I posed to my clock doc ;
here's his response:
The points on most of these clocks were never meant to be replaceable, so
there were very few spare sets ever made. What I often have to do if
points need replacement is buy another broken clock in whole to use as a
donor and hope that it will at least have a salvageable set. This is
harder to do with any clock that is relatively rare, because the price
gets too high.
I believe I can save yours.

Thanks for the post- Ted
