Technical Vintage gauges

I like Gauges too! Yay for gauges!!

 

That is too cool! Pretty sure I sold you that oil pressure gauge. Glad it went to a good home.

 

I told you.....

It's Krylon metallic finish #2908 Copper. Just put a few coats on wet sand and rub out.

 

Man I love these. Might have to start looking for some.

 

SW stage III. When your steering wheel cuts off the top of your speedo.
I also would love a DIY on taking them apart so I can get the dust out.

 

No I have never seen that decal before but when I get a few minutes I will recreate the vintage old image.

Let me know if you need a better picture. I'm sure I can do better than holding it up to the dining room light!

 

I like the gauges in the firewall. Would be nice to have a vacuum gauge in that firewall, too.

 

49 or 50 nash

 

Stole these from an Eelco thread on here. Heck I didn't know Eelco made gauges! Neato!

 

And Eelco made some with silver faces. I'm assuming that your temp gauge is mechanical. Does it still have the line?...just curious.

 

Someone told me a long time ago that it stands for "Vehicle Display Output" . I don't know. I do know that there is a company named VDO that makes automotive gauges and I wonder if it somehow related to that company.

 

Just own the photos not the gauges. Those red highlights on the silver gauges are great!

 

My Brand new Airguide Tach in my 64 Galaxie! I got it new in the box with a waterslide decal from the nephew of a woman that used to work at the factory ! He was going to actually throw it in the garbage! He didn't know better!

 

These are Faria gauges, from the late 80's I believe. Faria traditionally has made boat gauges, but apparently made a few auto gauge sets back then,

 

Did Faria/Rotunda not also produce gauges for Ford in the 60's?

 

Hi Danny.Thanks for starting this thread.Some great equipment showing up.As for sticker shock at the grocery store,OMG for sure.I remember going to the local 7-11 for my Mom to get a loaf of bread.
Got a loaf of Merita brand bread,the 2 lb loaf of sandwich sliced for .10 cents no sales tax.That was back about the day after Noah grounded the Ark.
Good luck.have fun.Be safe.

My poor eyes missed the vac gauge. PERFECT!

 

I don't know, but this link is for a very cool gauge identification website that I had not know of before. Check it out:

I picked this up at an estate sale recently. Google seems to think it's a 1960's Paxton boost gauge.

 

Had this one since the '60's.

 

this one sells tomorrow if anyone is excited about it, not mine https://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-NO...XxaJHaT:sc:USPSPriority!55315!US!-1:rk:1f:0

 

I'll play The chrome and face is perfect...got lucky to find this one...any know how to hook it up...

 

Not mine however I saw it on E-Bay and thought it was different


Is this technically a gauge, my NOS oil eye


I've posted these previously and had the instruments in my 46 Olds refurbished with modern movements however I maintained OEM appearance and added a tacho as well, amps to volts as well as increasing oil pressure and water temperate, and speedometer





I even have a NOS vacuum gauge for aesthetics
