Check this out:

It turns out that Klockit has a retail store in Lake Geneva, WI, with 
is right next door to where Gary & Bev Forsmo spend their summers. 
It's about an hour from me.

If you go to the page above, you'll see that they sell their clocks 
in a number of different bushing lengths. Look at this and tell me if 
any of these look about right.

Okay, after spending about 20 minutes trying to figure out how to get 
where you told me and how to search on "bobnotch" without getting the 
"no images found" reply, I finally found them.

When you were done, were you able to set the hands from the front, as 
original, or do you have to reach up under the dash and do this from 
the back of the new movement?
