This one is a lot cheaper but was made a few months before the ute.
Is that time difference between part manuafature and vechile manufature appropriate?

I have finish the pod.
It has westach gauges and switches are modern 12 volt.
It also has a tacho that is mounted in a cup and will be mounted on the side of the dash.

Great to actually see some progress on the Barny scene
I thought they were all just tucked away and treated like superannuation .... |

I am always on the hunt for any original parts that will one day complete the ute when it is time for a full resto.
The pod has a KM speedo which I asume is not Austalian however I can replace the face with the orginal MPH face from the broken pod I have.
It is dated 4th month 1954 would that be concidered appropriate for the ute even though it was an october 54 production?
Also guys does it look to be authentic?
Thanks

That dash pod you've made is super trick.
It's a pity later splits can't be modded as easily.
About the most you can do is have a multiple gauge made up the same size as the OG speedo.
