I'm pretty sure it's out of a Chevy but not sure if it's a truck or car. I want to identify it in order to see if anyone needs one rather than throw it away. Thanks for any help.

Definitely not a 54 Ford ... they *were* this shape but had natural lighting coming in from the back of the unit - outside light would shine through the windshield, then through the back of the unit.

Also, those numbers look a bit more modern than early 50s, I think.

It looks like Ford to me, too. Late 50's, early 60's.

Hmmmm, a 90 mph speedo with idiot lights. I don't have a clue as to what it came out of.

James, that sure looks like the culprit. I apologize for cluttering the board with a F**d item here :rolleyes: and I appreciate the help. Thanks.

There is probably a thread on the Old Ford Trucks forum, some guy with a '48 Stovebolt speedo asking if anyone can identify it...

Hey gang. An email bounced between TxLaTX and Alan. I'm not sure who sent / didn't get. But it ended up here!

FYI. TTFN.
