I got a box full of second hand cutouts, not sure if they'll be any good, but before they go in the bin i thought i's ask what they are. Also a load of switchs, all marked Air ministry.

Some gauges i don't recognise, the speedo has a toggle switch at the back for the illumination.

Points for something?

Fingers crossed i'm going back friday for another load , just need to identify some of this so i can convince the misses its a good idea. If i don't buy it, its going in the scrap.

The story behind the spares is they all came from an air base when it was shut down, maybe that helps.

The speedo in post #10 looks like the one for the Hillman Utility.
Partnumbers : P42266 MT1/SM/53142/27

Hello Freek,

Nearly right,i think they are pst war hillman minx with them having the KMP/h on.
Should a hillman tilly have the toggle switch?

Thanks
John

The face looks wartime to me. I've just checked the handbooks, and YES...they do show the speed in MILES and KM.
Remember that the Tilly's were infact civilian in design and construction.
Allthough the Hillman Minx used the same design meters postwar.

Hi John,

I see 7AL on the fan belt, that is Albion. Cannot read the label on pistons

[John A. Rippingham]

Hello Richard,

I thought you'd smell the cosmoline, thanks for taking the time to look.

So the fan belts are Albion, hmmmm i have 30 of these, with 2 in each box, and i guess i'll be lucky if theres two Albions left. Oh well the boxes are nice!!!

The label on the pistons reads,

61.ms 204399 + .020"
piston assembly
(.020"o/s) (V8480/20)
