We're looking for correct oil pressure and temp gauges for the lightweight we're building.

Images below; does anyone recognise what car they are originally from or can anyone suggest who we should talk to to get them?

Hi Andrew,
Are you looking for the correct gauges for a 1963 or 2015 LWE, because the ones you illustrate don't look period to me?
I presume you will need the matching water temp as well?

Try Dave Brown the D-type builder in NZ (Invercargill). They are close to my D gauges.

They were Smiths gauges. Try Caerbont Automotive who own the Smiths IP and name on:http://www.caigauge.com/index.html If the gauge is not in their catalogue give them a call as they produced the gauges for the continuation Lightweight's.
