Greetings, I recently picked up a box of old car parts at a local auction and this dash clock was in the bottom of the box. It doesn't have any obvious markings or part # on it so I thought I'd come to the forums and see if anyone recognized it. Thanks ZB
yup, it looks like it could be 60s. But the wiring remains look like they are from the 50s. The ebay seller also has no clue what it's from, eh?
Chevy had clocks like that from '51- '53 but without the rounded shoulders on top. In '54 the graphics changed to 2-4-6-8-etc. But with Chevy, the knob was on the face, not designed to reach up under the dash. It looks likes a wind up version and the wires are just for illumination. Don't know??? This one looks like the Ford one posted above. Notice the knob poking through the dash below the clock. Again, the shoulders at the top have to fit though.
The photo above in post #5 is a '50 Ford. Below is clock from a '49. And the shoulders do fit behind the dash on these.
more photos of '49 Ford clocks, lots more https://www.google.com/search?q=194...qR0q_XAhUD4WMKHaYcCnEQsAQIcQ&biw=1238&bih=518
Yea, no doubt it does fit and is indeed a Ford clock. Good info. I only meant to suggest that Chevy had a similar, same size clock with the knob relocated that may have been made by the same supplier.
