Hey all... well i will start off with the story. Got 2 free webbers and 1 Free 1.75 SU from
a lovely old lady (among other stuff) .. was just wondering if somoen could
let me know what sort of webbers these are please there are 2 of them.





and any ideas what these are?




Secondly, I know that all of this stuff below is GT. BUT i have a:
2 - 6000 rpm redline tachos 0 these are english GT;s i believe?
1 - 6500 rpm redline tachos these are Aussie GTs obviously
1- 120 mph speedo which is aussie GT







Just wanting to confirm that the 6k tachos are out of English GTs
(cos i thought that maybe when Leyland changed the motors from
the Mk2 S blocks to the large journal 1100S internals (that are no good
for reving) they may have decrease the redline on these? it is the second
6k tacho i have gotten.... i would not have thought tehre would be that many
out here if they were english GT's.... (1275LS and S and 998 LS all have 5500rpm)

ALSO my gearnob is interesting.. apparently they were all meant
to be brown.. however, mine has the correct top and is black.. shed any
light on this anyone (it has def come off a Aussie GT)





Finally. anyone know anything about the 1964 south eastern Australia car rally badge
i found tuced away under the house???

edit:

found some numbers on the webbers.

the first one in the pic, numbers on that are:

5900 4K
23
32 DIR 39

second one (the dirty one)

4101 3M
24
32 SIR 36

does that help out

look like escort webbers to me.
the 2 things under the webbers are su bodys (guessing you knew that tho)
cool lot of stuf!
was it free?

I can help with one of those SUs ...
The RH one in the pic is part of a pair (yay you!!) that odd looking bit-thingy sticking out is for the linkage.. last one I saw was an "S" one ... could be ....

other than that those Webers could be from...

Cortina, Falcon, Alfa-Romero, Fiat, etc etc etc ....

VERY common units ..... i think....

thanks muchly.. so can the webbers be put on a mini?

if not how much would they be worth to sell u think

yupo theyl go on a mini, if yoy can get a mini manifold (nikki ones fit if you slot the holes)

They are Weber 32/36 DFV series, they are like the DGV but mirror image
2 barrel progressive downdraft carby
I used the DGV series on my dattos for a quick carby upgrade

so does this mean they be good or bad or just nothing at all

Don't think you can put them on Minis as you can't get a suitable manifold. 28/36 fits on Minis, but not the 32/36. Shame coz I've got one myself

should a gt dash have orange or white needles? Mine (early 7/71 gt) has white - like these - yet others i have seen have been orange (but they have been in 72 models)???.

they should be white well at least in the early ones.. i have not no about
later ones... but some of the base models had orange needles

cheers mate!
that's good to know!
jon

was part of a pair, but without the other one it's just a single, as it's the common side - same as fitted to all the small pre '74 motors

did I tell you that I won a trophy?

That's an Aussie GT gear knob. Not sure about the black colour though. These things are as rare as rocking horse you know what.

I know of someone currently restoring a Gambier GT who would be very interested in it

My GT has a gear knob nearly exactly the same. I believe thats genuine Aussie. Although,mine is a bit different with the edge bit being brown not black. I don't know how to post a pic here, but i'll email you a pic of my gear knob.
