The first three from Brad Mills having been posted on here before, but I felt it would be good to have them in this thread.
The oil pressure gauge is Canadian, while the Lucas start button is Pre Universal British carrier.

A few more bits. The round bakelite switch in the last picture was used in a few applications.
1. Std start button.
2.British speedo
3. Two switches from Dirk Leegwaters shop. Note the extra position on the British switch.
4. The trouble light dash socket.
5. I think this was the original change over switch for the tail light / black out light, on British carriers. (the switch at the back)

As it is the 11th day of the 11th month
