Oil pressure gauge

Post by lakesrally » Sat Mar 02, 2013 7:05 pm

Can anyone identify this oil pressure gauge? I'm not selling it but am just curious to know what is it from, I thought maybe a Rover 8 or 9.

Hi Stewart,

I believe the gauge is from a 9 it is very close to mine. However I believe that gauges used on Australian and New Zealand cars may have been different than home market cars.

See you in June

Hi Dirk, a member in Austalia with a 9 says he has a Smiths gauge with 4 fixing holes although it is quite possible that they fitted different gauges at different times. Probably depended on who they could still get credit with at the time! :)

I have just bought a partly restored 1926 9, and its come with 3 oil pressure gauges. They have the same badging - Rover and Eureka. 2 have markings for psi, 1 has no markings; the scales are different - 40, 60 and 100.
