I picked this Gauge Cluster up at a yard sale 2 years ago. The speedometer is Stewart Warner, Chicago.

The Heat Indicator, Oil, and Ampere guages all are made by N. G. & E. Co., of LaCrose, Wis. The Heat Indicator has a Patent date of March 20, '17.

The shiny frame looks like stainless steel, or nickel plated brass. It has no rust on its edges, or inside.

Anyone out there know what this came from!

Thanks for your help!

Thank you for your reply .

I have found this picture on a May 11, 2006, post in this forum.

It was identified as from a 1926 Studebaker, and looks similar. It also has a Stewart speedometer. The photo is not very clear, though. On mine, the arrangement of the guages is a little different.

Does anybody else have an idea on this one of mine?

I also thought of mid twenties Studebaker, but it does not have space for a clock. Stude first used a temp gauge in 1927, and the King-Seeley gas gauge fits that era, but still no clock. If Studebaker, must be 27 or later.

My books indicate this is from a 1926 Studebaker Big 6 and Special 6. The earlier and later Studes had mostly white gauge surrounds as opposed to the black in your photo.
