Tonz Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Just found this beautiful white faced Smiths cluster at a swap meet. Does anyone recognise what vehicle they belong to. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueDevil Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Lack of a tach and the 80MPH Speedo would suggest a sedan??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Some British cars had Smiths instruments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1912Staver Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 (edited) Probably an Austin from the early / mid 1950's. You can often I.D. the individual instruments from the factory code. The very small alphanumeric lettering on the face. On your speedo it is the lettering just below where the indicator needle pivots. I can't read the whole number , but it ends with 7 /3. At least that is what it looks like in your photo. Note the whole number and try a google search.

JACK M Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Says "Made in England" right under the MPH. Odd combination must be some British import. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueDevil Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Seems odd that the clock would have instructions on the face of the rim "to regulate insert screw driver & turn slightly towards "S" if gaining or vice versa" I think it says "Setting hands starts movement" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
