    Hello group:

    Been thinking bout using this cluster in a project. I am stumped on what vehicle it came from. Did a bunch of searches and coming up empty. Thought someone may be able to identify 1C36936F-B83E-4DBE-9441-D5EA6AD6692E.jpeg this item. Thanks in advance!

    It's the same one...look at the goober on the lower right face plate and the missing paint on both sides of the lower metal trim pieces. It's in two places at the same time:eek:

    It looks way more cool than anything out of a catalogue.

    I
    What’s weird is I did a Google Lens when I did a search this morning. Came up with nothing. Then I turned to the HAMB. They must have retained my photo. I see my placemat has been air brushed out. Yes I see the same mileage. Oh well.

    Thanks all. 1939 Hudson. Well I’ll be. That Google lens search sure is sneaky. All in all thought it looked cool and different instead of same old gauges. Thanks!

    haha, the moral of the story, always go to the Hamb first

  13. Not to side track your thread but, THAT is real Art Deco!! Why can't the 'specialty' gauge manufacturers provide the world with some really good repops of that sort of thing? Most of the ones I've seen look like they have no idea what retro should be!!

    Found an actual pic of the cluster in a ‘39 Hudson. Bet that wood grain dash was killer. Thanks A196504B-32E8-44FA-8F14-4535E166B1B8.jpeg

  19. Well Hudson merged with Nash which later became AMC that was bought by Chrysler so ….. yup is a Dodge !!

    that dash and click would look killer in a custom dash !!!!!
