So i've had these (some of them anyway) for 20 years +, they are beginning to show signs of age / rust and probably need to be re-homed asap however I have no idea what vehicles they were fitted to.
I wanted to make the set of the orange ones and use them in my kit but with the ford senders and running gear I think it unlikely they will be compatible.
I have two speedo's one reading 4 miles and one new one reading 1 mile, both have a separate knob on a cable for resetting the tripmeter.

I have one matching tacho, i like to odd angle of both readouts.

Both are 80mm and the 8000 rpm top of scale would indicate car (4cyl) not bike.
The protrusion seen in the photo's is the handle of the old tankard I propped them in to take the photo's, not part of the instrument.
I also have the following 52mm gauges.
fuel gauge (and the tank sender float mechanism)

Oil temperature (no sender)

Water temperature (needs sender to fit pinto engine)

I'm pretty sure I had an oil pressure gauge but it appears to not be in the same box so maybe need one of those with a sender too.
Any help identifying the source vehicle would be much appreciated, finding the missing bits equally so. Failing that I'm open to offers...
