Speedo Identification

[Stan Part]

As posted somewhere else on the club forum, what the Hull does this belong to then?<br>

<br>
I was given it by the chap who gave me all those Toledo bits a week or so ago, he said it came from a Toledo he broke up years ago. But as Jonners (so rightly says) it cannot be from either a Toledo or Dolomite 1300/1500 as it does not have lights in it for IGN/OIL/HIGH BEAM.<br>
<br>
It cannot belong to a 1500HL as it has the trip reset on the front and not the remote one under the dash. It cannot be for a FWD 1300/1500 as it is the wrong style and has the "squared off" digits instead of the rounded ones.<br>

Isn't it from a late 1850?

Dunno didn't all 1850's have the remote do - dah under the dash for setting the trip?

I dunno, but I do know the late Sprints had the push button reset thingy on the front, but then again the numbers went up in 20s & not tens on the later ones. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8o --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/nerd.gif ALT="8o"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Just been out into the garage and checked on the dash hanging on the wall (like you do) and as this is from a 1980 W plate 1850HL thought it might provide an answer.<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>NO!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br>
<br>
As you can see it does have the Doo-Dah under the dash and not on the face, it does look very similar though.<br>

Alan, that is a pre '76 dash you have hanging on the wall; look at the hazard switch.<br>
<br>
Your speedo is late 1850HL or late 1500HL.

Alun and I are right. This is from a late HL dolly. My W plate 1850 has a push button trip reset...the earlier ones even up to the V reg sprint have the twiddly knob.<br>
Think it coincides with compulsory fog lights as the switch is where the reset used to be.<br>

I concur, tis the same one as fitted to my 77 1500 HL a very early late model if that makes sense!? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Thanks chaps. <br>
<br>
Do you know I woke up at about 3.00am this morning, sat bolt up right in bed and thought "hang on that's the dash for the 74 1850 I broke up last year not the 80 one".<br>
<br>
Sorry, yes, your all right (anorak points earned) I'll check out the 80 Dash which is stored in the garage loft space, but I'm sure you are all correct.<br>
<br>
Job Done !
