speedometer choice

Post by Themb6429 » Sat Feb 18, 2023 9:43 am

Hello everyone,

Faced with the difficulty of finding the right speedometer (Autolite type II) for my "Early" of March 43, I hesitate between these two models, which would be the most appropriate?

Thanks :wink:

If I were you I would post this in the regular forum. This forum is specifically for the early MBs, generally before April 1942. I can tell you, however, that the 2nd speedometer (with the thin needle) is for these early MBs, and not for a 1943 like you're requesting.

Thank you for your answer ccdoran, more exactly my Willys is from March 24, 42 with a Sn 129...
The real counter would be this one

but not found at a correct price in France.
