G'day Eric
British Jaeger chronometric gauges are simply gorgeous and were state of
the art in the late 1940s and early '50s. I am afraid to say that they
were much more sophisticated than the Smiths gauges fitted to the
Austin-Healey.
However there is a Healey connection as I have a set British Jaeger
gauges sitting on a shelf at home. They were fitted as original
equipment to Healey cars and mine were fitted to my 1947 Healey Duncan
Saloon.
What information would you like?

Hi all,
does anybody happen to have information on Smiths/British Jaeger gauges
which were built into any car or know a source where I could get hold of
this information? I'm especially interested in the numbers on the face
of these gauges as I'd like to compile a list, which I'll make public to
anyone.
I think I already have all the numbers related to Austin-Healeys and
some for MG, but feel free to pass on any information you consider
important on or off the list to me.
Thanks to those taking their time and responding to me.
Eric
