Guest Johnny Thomas Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 :)I was digging through my shed and came across a set of guages that I picked up many years ago and can't remember what they were for. They have floating power on the face of the speedometer, so I assume it was a Chrysler product. I think the person I got them from said it was a 1938, but the closes I can find to it is a 1935 Chrysler or 34 Desoto, but no perfect match.

Guest De Soto Frank Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 (edited) Definitely Chrysler Corp...My wild guess is '37 Plymouth - that model did use two clusters.Those pointers should be the dead-giveaway to the right pair of eyes...

Guest Jim_Edwards Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 The "Floating Power" slogan was first used with 1931 model Chrysler Corp Brands across the board. The nature of the numbers would tend to make one believe the speedometer and gauges are probably from the 1931-1933 period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not be surprised to find DeSoto Frank's guess as being correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Old 38 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Hey Johnny,You wouldn't happen to be interested in selling the speedometer by chance? I have a D10 (Canadian) in need of one. Actually, I would be interested in both the speedo and the other gauges.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
