Thanks to all for Speedometer information.

Patrick (Quinn): is 'Real Healeys' and 'Healeys' the same or different ?

G'day

Real Healeys were fitted with English Jaeger Chronometric gauges and these are
absolutely nothing like the Smiths gauges of the same period.

MG TA, TB, TC and early TD were also fitted with English Jaeger Chronometric
gauges.

To watch a chronometric gauge in action I find is a delight. If you want to
read how chronometric gauges work have a look at:

Easily found by Google-ing: SMITHS instruments restoring. The Smiths and
Jaeger UK instruments are identical technically and optically except the
brand name.
One firm is Speedograph in the UK, but there are plenty others around
the globe.
Also have a look at www.caigauge.com<http://www.caigauge.com/> , they may have
new items.
