I have been wanting to put in a Smith electric oil-pressure gauge for some
time - and finally tracked one down, but it turned out to be no-good. SO - I
am back searching. However, I am very picky since:
a) it has to be electric (don't feel like running an oil-feed line into the
car - and already have the sending unit mounted :-)!)
b) it has to be Smith - matching the fuel and temp gauges I have
c) the needle has to point downward - also matching the fuel and temp gauge

- so it is probably not easy. I know these exists - since I have one (the
one that is no-good) - but don't know what type cars they could come out of
(anybody???. As I understand it, TR6's were fitted with manual oil-pressure
gauges - but how about MG's? Anybody has a lead to where I can find one of
these gauges? Anybody got one laying around that they would be willing to
part with?

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated,


Thanks,

Michael

P.S. I also know that there are dual gauges out there, but not those I am
not interested in.
P.P.S. Anybody got the e-mail address for the MG-list?

GT6 Mk. 2 1969 (Red w/1972 GT6 engine - and black targa-top)
GT6 Mk. 3 1971 (White - w/TR250 engine)
....not responsible for any of these changes...
....the DPO did it....hmmmm.....
