Another two parts from eBay. The first is a Jaeger 0-120 speedo. Actually it's an old conversion, it has a Smiths 0-120 mechanism and a reproduction face in a Jaeger speedo case.I'll put a new bezel on it with a fake tripmeter knob where the filled in hole is and it'll go in the car. Or, I might put another mechanism in it. I'm not sure, but I'll keep this face and not the one I bought earlier, this is an old reproductioon, so it's faded and aged a bit and looks very convincing.
Then I got this, a Smiths 30-100 temp gauge. That's my dashboard complete :o)
My restoration. I'm called Lofty because I spent so much time in the loft. Some of me is still there!

Vintage Auto Klean oil strainer and Autoklean glass bowl fuel filter
Another good eBay haul! Two Auto Klean parts I needed. The first is an oil strainer. I'm not entirely sure how this works, but I daresay I'll work it out. Apparently they come in three sizes. I wasn't aware of that when I bought it, but we'll see whether it's correct when it arrives.
The second part is an Auto Klean glass bowl fuel / gas filter.
If you have one of these and want to sell it, please get in touch using the contact page on www.vintagesunbeams.blogspot.com because I know someone who wants one! I think they were also used on tractors - condition is unimportant!
