    I found all this stuff at the flea market this morning. The wheel and column go together, column has Ford stamped on parts inside and has a neutral safety switch. Tach looks like a Rotunda I think, not sure. Speedometer has no markings or numbers I can see. Paid $1 each. Not a bad haul for 4 bucks no matter what they're from. Thanks for any help.

    Speedometer looks like 53-4 Chevy, but not positive.

    Well, you guys gave me a target to shoot for. Turns out the steering wheel is 1951 Mercury. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

    the column is an automatic from the same 51 merc...nice finds..the auto columns are in demand as a swap for a stocker or someone doing a 350/350 swap or auto swap..

    Thanks, do you know are they 8 cylinder. It's a cool tach. Does it require a sending unit?
