Quick on wanting to get paid. - Full restoration as requested was not done Charged me extra to reset the the mile count (figured that would be part of the restoration) -Speedo came back with rattling inside -shipped back without rubber seals (reached out multiple times to send them and he never did and is ignoring me) Take your business elsewhere. read more

I sent my Mopar Rally gauge cluster in for restoration and waited three years to get it back. When it finally arrived, it was a mess: the odometer fell out, the tach board was never upgraded as promised, none of the gauges worked, and the speedometer label was crooked and poorly applied. To his credit, Buz he offered to take it back and make it right -- but after years of poor communication, delays, and terrible execution, I'm not taking that risk again. Fool me once... I've requested a refund multiple times and have been completely ignored. Disappointing experience from start to finish. Avoid. read more

***HORRIBLE, DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH HIM*****He was recommended to me by someone in Texas to repair my 1949 IH KB-1 instrument cluster. I called, left a message, and followed up with an email. Initially, he was responsive, but after receiving my core and payment (3 times what I later found on eBay), I couldn't get him to respond for 6 months. I finally sent him a certified letter giving him 10 days to return the repaired instrument panel, or to return the core and receive full payment, or I would take him to small claims court. He responded, making all sorts of excuses that my emails were going to his spam folder. Funny, we didn't have any problems communicating in August, September, October 2025, and then not again until February 2026. He finally delivered the instrument cluster and core. Hopefully it works when I get to that point of installation. He had promised to return some money to me due to all my frustrations and then conveniently "forgot." Whoops - Mr Promise and Don't Deliver guy. He needs to lose his business license! ***HORRIBLE, DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH HIM***** read more

I sent Buz a pair of Chris Craft tachometers to convert from mechanical to electronic signal. He quoted me $2k and said it would take about a month. 90 emails and an entire year later, I finally have my tachs back but they do not work. Do not do business with this person. Communication was terrible, months between emails, never answer the phone. Oh, except when they needed payment, Buz was happy to pick up the phone and call then. I can only guess his work and finished product is no longer what it used to be. I have found more and more stories like mine on all sorts of car forum boards. read more

I sent the gauges from my 1958 Chevy BelAire to this company. It took a month for them to get back to me with an estimate. In that time I had sent 3-4 emails asking for an update but no response. The estimate was more than I was expecting but I just wanted the work done. After another 2 months and countless emails to them asking for updates, they finally returned the gauge set. They looked good but when I installed them they didn't work correctly. I gave up on this quack shop and sent them off to another shop. What an amazing difference. In 2 weeks I had the gauges back and they worked perfectly! Never again to this outfit... read more

Visited the Speedometer Ranch in Ellensburg and Buz took great care of my Porsche 993 C2S and got me out of there in no time. He is a true artisan with lots of specialized equipment and tons of experience to repair any gauge. Most ship their gauges, but it might be worthwhile to make the trip to visit his sweet workshop. Def highly recommended. read more

See all

This shop and owner (Buz) is exactly what you hope for in a technical specialist. He is personable, he is approachable, he is infinitely knowledgeable about his craft and he is a great guy. I would recommend S S to anyone needing gauge repair, restoration, calibration, or how to connect/install. This is an awesome business and owner. 10 stars!!!!! read more

Buz is a real stand up guy. Sent them my 1995 Porsche speedometer/odometer in for rebuild. While the other shops wanted weeks Buz and Seattle Speedometer took on the job right away, diagnosed the issue, gave me a price over the phone and got my speedometer back timely. Great shop, nice people to deal with. Would recommend PCA members give Buz's shop a call for their projects. I'm confident you will not be disappointed with the service or quality of work. read more

We have been dealing with Buz and SS for a few years now. They are the real deal and are very happy with the great work they do. Thanks a ton for everything and we hope to work with you again soon. read more

The owner of this shop, Buz, has done work on a few of my Porsche gauges and has always performed above expectation. His level of detail and timely turn around sure beats that of the usual California suspects, who are surely the only other people working at his level. He charges a fair price, and when you call you talk to Buz directly. I also greatly appreciate that he helps support some of the local clubs, and will send gift certificates to the larger events. I cannot say enough about how pleased I have been with his services. Highly recommended! read more

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMAPNY Buz twice failed to repair the tachometer for my classic Harley. There were numerous delays during those two attempts. Numerous telephone calls and e-mails that went unanswered. On those occasions he responded, it was typically an excuse; e.g. waiting for parts, or every time I fix a circuit, another one fails. After the second time I received the unit and it did not work, I requested a refund, and received no response. NOT A WORD. I repeat, DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMAPNY read more

I use Seattle Speedometer for all of my instrument repairs. Their attention to detail is second to none. They are responsive to inquiries and their turnaround is quick. I have two choices locally but continue use Buzz, the quality is worth shipping the parts up north. read more

After enlisting Seattle Speedometer's services for a routine speedometer calculation, Seattle Speedometer failed to calibrate the speedometer like Buz had advertised. After prolonged periods of non-communication and three attempts at calibrating the speedometer over a period of 6 months, I was out $300 (after shipping expenses). Upon requesting and getting a refund approved, I was told numerous times over the period of 3-4 months that "the check was in the mail" and the refund never came. After multiple failed attempts, I cannot get a response back from the company and my refund is no where to be found. The whole process took roughly 11 months to realize this business is a scam and fraudulent. My speedometer arrived each time after service as bad if not worse then when I shipped it off to him. It is apparent Seattle Speedometer is collecting speedometers for service, receiving payment, claiming to calibrate them, and shipping them back unserviced. After presenting my frustration to the business in multiple ways, the business owner approved a refund. After 5 months of promising a refund, my refund has never come and the business refuses to answer the phone or respond to a magnitude of emails. In the end, I was forced to pay another calibration service to calibrate my speedometer and I am out roughly $300. I cannot emphasize enough how difficult this company is to work with and how disingenuous and dishonest they are. A typical speedometer calibration service offers a turnaround of 2-3 weeks. Buz with Seattle Speedometer unfortunately drug this awful experience out for 11 months. read more

My shop had a 1964 Dodge Dart speedometer restored by Seattle Speedo last year and it was done to perfection. 100% accurate and looks like new. The owner, Buzz, takes pride in his workmanship. Will use this biz again, absolutely. read more
