Hi all what car do these fit? in need of a clean!

i reckon the wheel is probably an early capri or somink and the gauges i dont have a clue

[Chris!]

the dials are from a mk1 escort sport, mexico, rs2000, rs1600, rs1800, GT i think

the wheel i think is capri

Part right, RS1600's and early Mex's had 8000rpm 140mph clocks while later Mex's had 7000rpm 130mph ones

 

All RS2000 mk1's had 130mph 7000rpm and the RS1800 was a mk2

 

These will have been fitted to a 1300 mk1 in some shape or form, 1300GT, 1300E or 1300XL I suspect.

 

I think the 1300Sport had a two clock dash with a rev counter in a pod

 

No idea on the wheel sorry

wheel looks like a later mk2 escort rs2k i think

Click: Anorak mode engaged

 

Nope even the small gauges are different on the earlier types as they're a completly different font, the fake wood is different on the XL's from the RS and 1300E models too.

 

Casing is the same though

[escortmad79]

Gauges are 1300XL mk1

 

Steering wheel, possibly mk2 Sport as it has a Ford centre cap?

And how many rivets are there on the car?

[razersedge]

steering wheel is escort mk2 standard there were 2 stearing wheels on the mk2 escort a plastic 2 spoke like the mk3 standard wheel or that one but the rs one that my mate has is leather but i don't no if this was an optional extra or not. and the clocks are 1300e because of the wood trim and they don't go up to 8000rpm or 140mph like vista said

[escamino]

Wheel has plastic rim so is for Capri but will fit Mk1 Escort.

[tinamk1wales]

cheers for the info guys its much appreciated your better than books! i want to sell these both and all funds raised will be going towards beedz mk1 fez!

Guages are Mk1 Xl top.

As said earlier :-

The 1300e ones have proper wood screwed to the front face leaving 6 holes when removed although the fake wood is behind .

1300 sport was a 2 dial dash with a separate pod to the left of the steering wheel.

Gt was a silver front face with guages that looked more 3d then the later ones.

Early twin cam and Mexico had the 8000 rpm and 140 mph speedo.

[Savvi]

Pics below :

 

Top left 1300e.

Middle left 1300e face removed.

Top right XL.

Nah, convex ones have cone shaped glass coming outwards

[tinamk1wales]
