That looks like a 54 truck housing, as well as the clock. There was a wind up and a electric. It was one of many accesories available back then. Mounts on the dash above and between the guage clusters. I know I wouldent modify it to fit, they are worth pretty good money. Chris
I cut my teeth (literally) on the steering wheel of mom and dad's '52 back in the day! I won't bore you with the picture (which mom has shown to everyone since 1955!)
I remember that clock being the only thing that worked on my car. I've also seen a picture of that dash in one of our beloved ADs. And I must say, they look REALLY cool!
Nice ! what's the date stamped on the backside of it ? .
VDO makes a nifty tachometer that'd go right into that housing ,it's a Marine tach and so only goes up to 4,000 RPM's , would be sweet in a '54 or '55.1 .
