Hi
I bought a car that come with a lot of spares. Some are not from the car and this 2 gauges are one of thems.
Anyone can identify which car they belong.
The one from the right has the austin symbol, both are smiths.
Thanks |

The one on the right is typical of many Austin cars and some commercials immediately pre and post WW2.
I think they may have come in different diameters, but I am not sure.
My 1951 Austin FL1 Hire Car has one such, which continued to the end of FL1 and FX3 taxi production around 1957, but I think soon after that the styling boys produced instrument layouts mostly limited to particular models.
The one on the left rings bells, but not very loudly!

Interesting that the speedo is in KPH yet the warning lights are labelled in English. |

If my memory serves me right, Enfo was used by Ford, just like Mowog was used by BMC. |

Yes ENFO is a Ford trade mark.
I have some Ford spanners, no sizes on any of them just ENFO. |

I can't see an ENFO anywhere. Is it near the SMITHS written under the KPH sign? _________________ 1936 Morris 8 Series 1

it's under the "60" behind the arrow.
i'll take a better picture later if that is important to identify the gauge |
