Hi Everyone!
This is my first post on Team-BHP Forums, I feel this thread is an excellent place for my debut. I am sharing two pictures 1-) My Friends Austin Gypsy fitted some Heli's control switches, 2- My recently restored Morris Minor 1000

Manish's picture is of an early Austin seven.

Speaking of dashboards, I was in the UK visiting a friend late last summer and he picked me up at the rural railway station near his country house in a 1924 Bentley. Here are pictures of the dash of his Bentley, as we wound our way through the quiet village to his farmhouse. On another day, we drove fifty miles at about 60 MPH in his second car, an early twenties Vauxhall 30/98, to join a few mates of his at a village pub. They turned up in their steeds, another 30/98, and an early veteran Daimler special. It was utter automotive bliss!

Wow really cool.

Is that Daimler a V12 sleeve valve job ?

Please put up some pics of the cars and their engines too ....

The Herald dash, though not too original from the interior, looks nice. Do you have any more pics. of this Herald anjan? It looks like it's been made into a convertible.

Shyam I have taken pictures of this car and will post them very soon. Actually its parked in a congested garage and I could not view or click its frontal portion as it is abutting against the wall.
But can you say why the speedo and the smaller meter have differently coloured dials?

I've replied to your query (finally got through!) in the standard thread where you posted the pics.
