John Linaburg Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Can anyone identify this for me, please? It was in a car built by my father titled in 1947. It has a Cushman Scooter engine in it, but used some vintage Ford parts such as front hubs. I can't find anything quite like it anywhere. The second picture is the steering column which is obviously from some vehicle that may be related to the ammeter but I don't recognize it either. Any help would be appreciated. I'd like to find a replacement as this one looks fried. Thanks! John Linaburg in VA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) Looks like a 1936 or 1937 Ford steering column/lock. Edited October 13, 2018 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Linaburg Posted October 13, 2018 Author Share Posted October 13, 2018 Have to agree with that after looking at pictures, but that's obviously not where the ammeter came from then. Thanks for that help anyway! Have a good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikefit Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Amp. Meter looks to be Ford Model T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layden B Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Original Model T Ford ammeters have FORD script and read only 20 amps, this one may be aftermarket and uses a small diameter 1926-1927 ammeter in an adaptor to fit 1919-1925. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curti Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I have a couple of those ammeters, they can't be very rare. I did a model T for my father-in-law, I think that is where they came from. Aftermarket , probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Linaburg Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 Thank you to all who replied. It does appear to be from a Model T and I found one online including the mounting adapter that doesn't have the Ford script. I do appreciate the help. It's nice that a novice trying to track things down can get help from the experts in a pleasant way. A credit to the organization. Have a great day, all.
