'60s British car speedo - ID needed...

That shape of speedo was used on some Austins (Cambridge perhaps?) and some Fords. My guess is a MK1 Zephyr, but it is only a guess.

That dash is going to annoy the hell outta me. I've seen one, quite recently, but can't remember what in. My initial thought was an Anglia, but a google says I'm wrong. Bugger.

Austin A40 Farina Mark II

Seconded.

Thirded. Mike.

I think we'll take that as a consensus! Thanks...

fleaBay, here it comes...

It's similar but somehow not quite right - mainly the fuel gauge etc. Pity the pic doesn't include the whole thing.

But it's a long time since my brother had A40s. Knowing him he'll still have a speedo. ;-)

There's three pics there. One of 'em does.

Perhaps it's my browser - but non of them come up with a full pic of the unit. The speedo looks like an A40 one but the graphics I can see on the fuel gauge look somehow wrong. But I could just be having a senior moment.

Go ahead and Ebay it with pic as an A40 unit. Anyone wanting it would surely know if it's correct or not.

Indeed, but I'd rather identify it before - if it turns out to be from a Spagthorpe Wuffle, few of those desperate-for-original-parts Spagthorpe owners will look, whilst all the A40 owners will go "No, it isn't" and ignore it. Somebody _will_ quietly identify it correctly, then buy it for

See? It's in all of your best interests to correctly identify it...

Well, it's obviously NOT from the Mk3, since they only built one, and that was LHD - so would have had a KPH speedo.

You're right. It could well be from a Spagthorpe Wuffle, although I'm not sure whether it's from a Mk2 or Mk3.

Hmmm. Could be, I s'pose. Looks like that Caribbean Island retreat may be within my reach after all.

Adrian realised it was 26 Sep 2007 13:51:46 GMT and decided it was time to write:

Yes, but that single, LHD Mk3 was exported to the US and it's been lost for years, so it could well be from that car.

I had one until last year. At first sight I didn't think it was, but I checked the photos in the club mag and it definitely is. No question.

Cheers, Chris.

Ah. I wonder what it is that looks wrong to you too at first glance? I thought the fuel gauge graphics.

I think it was just the fact I've never seen one out of the car so the overall shape looked wrong.

Since we can't get any more compelling "No" vote than that...
