Default Help identifying old instrument clusters

Hi.


I hope someone here can help. I have two instrument clusters that I pulled out of a relatives shop after he passed away. I remember that he had a 1950 Jaguar, and a few others that I never saw. I believe they are Jaguar clusters.


Wondering if anyone here can help identifying what I have. Thanks.


Mike

The one on the right is definitely from a right hand drive car. Looks English to me. I'll ask me Dad.

The left one is deffo a Mk2 or possibly 240/340 as it has no fog light switch position. Left hand drive car anyway.

LH photo is definitely for a Mark 2 or maybe 240/340 and for a left-hand drive, because the washer and wiper switches are on the left, On a RH drive car they are on the right. The other panel would not be English, I would have thought, as the fuel gauge says "Gas", not an English term, and the temperature gauge is in Fahrenheit, whereas most English ones were in Centigrade if there were any temperature markings. I would say it is for a US car. The "key" could be the key in the ignition; what does it say on it ?
