Nobody knows?

It's a Stweart Warner, most likely one of the tens of thousands or perhaps hundreds of thpusands of aftermarket speedometers they sold from the teens through the 40s rather than a specific make or model.

 

So you don't know what it is. Thanks.

 

Hey Mr. Snippy. Looks similar to an old Model A speedometer, but those were oval. My best guess would be something from the late 20's, early 30's.

 

Start googling later 20's dashboards- that is most likely a factory production speedo made by SW.

I hate you Arkie, if I didnt already spend too much time looking at gauges, you just did me in.

 

Pretty cool site! I noticed multiple gauges listed at Model 600 (different shapes and faces). The one OP pictured has a trip odometer, which makes me think it was offered as an aftermarket speedo rather than OEM.

 

Its a VERY cool site. I know what Im wasting hours on this week.

 

Thanks for the help.

 

That's a pretty early one, likely 1920's. Many different models used the same/similar units with small differences. Are there any case or face identification numbers that you can see?
