Default Mystery AC speedo and gauge cluster
Can anybody identify these British items. They may be post WW2. Both fit a 3-3/4" hole. The oil and ammeter cluster is tagged LV6/MT1 1570584 which is an AC number but another is boxed as A.C. Sphinx Ltd. 6/VEH/395. The oil gauge is mechanical, not electrical. The speedometer has 869802 stamped in the rear body and the lower part of the face is marked AC Sphinx... Brian

Brian,
No pictures needed, speedo is for a Bedford QL 4x4 and gauge is for Bedford QL and other models, ie MW, OY,..

regards, Richard

From now on, no photos= no answers. Not that I would have known what these were anyway.

Yes they are for sale. Please PM me for details. Proceeds will include a donation to MLU without which I could never have identified these handsome gauges. .... Brian
