Technical Please ID ancient speedometer

4.25 inch diameter, nickel plated bezel, interesting font. Any ideas?

 

Well if it only goes to 100 then its definitely not a Chevy....

 

Could be European, in kilometers. 100 km/h is about 62 miles per hour.

 

No idea...dang cool piece though.

 

Maybe early motorcycle??

 

The numbers stamped on it look like Stewart Warner numbers, they made speedos for a lot of different cars over the decades. It's most likely from a car, I think

 

1933 Hudson?

 

My vote is motorcycle

 

kind of strange how it looks just like a 33 Hudson speedo, if it's from a motorcycle

 

Where do you think some of the early motorcycles got their speedos.

 

From the same places that make them for cars. But this one is from a car, not a bike.

 

Gene, as Squirrel said Hudson and if I'm not mistaken they used them in the Essex as well. Any plans for it?

 

Come on guys...ya all know by now, it's gotta be DODGE!

 

Well sh!t , even I knew that !!!

 

Yep. In a side-by-side comparison, it surely looks like a motorcycle speedo from a 33 Hudson. Jack E/NJ

 

Yes it was made by Stewart Warner. And they made instruments for motorcycles too. A lot of the same parts in car and bike instruments, just maybe calibrated differently. Actually they made speedos for bicycles too.

 

So obviously it came from a 33 Hudson motorcycle.

 

Hudcycle.........
