To Neil, Had a look at the photos and they look like the ones in my (range) of Type 3s in the backyard. I've only got one tacho in my Daily Driver '72 Notch and it's the same as pictured (though a guy down here converted a clock into a Tacho but said don't go past 5 o'clock.) Speedo (Picture 1) yes, (Picture 2) close up of speedo as follows: parkers/running lights top left yellow light, High beam top right blue light, and indicators for left and right below (again both yellow lights). You've made mention of a Fuel guage but it's not in the photos below. Some Speedo's had an overlayed (sticker) on them for km/h not this one. And you've been lucky enough to get one with a trip meter. Not all were like this. My Notch doesn't have this....yet....but I've got one sitting ready to go in. To Ben Doughney, I noted your response, I've only seen one or two km/h over here (Syndey, Oz), but wasn't sure if there were available in NZ. To Keith Park, Our old mate Aaron would know but don't have his card. Thought he may have sold you one. Have you heard from him lately?
