What is this/these? (1)
 

I have a couple of these fuel gauges, looks like they have a light attached. The bezel is a light cream colour, wondering if anyone can identify it.

Number 2
 

I have a few of these offset pins, wondering whether they ring a bell with anyone. They were with a batch of Chevrolet parts.

Hinge (3)
 

These are painted olive drab or khaki and are obviously door hinges, GM I think but what do they fit?

Keith .They sort of remind me of early king pins..but for what...???
Some one will know and I remember the offsets..but they are greasers..need a grease nipple on their bushing so some alinement adjuster..for sure.
HMmmmmm??? :sheep: :drunk: :kangaroo

The Hinges look very much like Lease/Lend Chev or GMC CCKW hard cab hinges (same thing). They would quite possibly also fit other model Chevs of the same period.

Thanks David, that's what I thought they may have been.

Alex, I hadn't thought of kingpins - they do have a threaded hole for the grease nipple on the top.

Keith,

As David says the door hinges are 40's Chev. I have just checked one left over from my 1945 Chev ute and it is identical.

Thanks, Lang. If anyone needs some NOS ones (bit rusty here and there from storage, but at least your doors should close properly) I have some available.

Keith
 

Your hinge appears to have a part number below the center hole.

M3 ?
 

Hi Keith - I think the fuel guage looks similar to an M3 General Grant ?

I recently gave one similar to the local museum for their M3

I would like to know for sure as I have another in my miscellaneous bits box...

Stewart Warner Gauges
 

Hi Keith,

What Phill said.

Basically I use the rule of thumb that any Stewart Warner convex glass gauges may be Grant. The Grant had 2 x fuel gauges set into a box jutting forward off the engine bulkhead in the fighting compartment.

In that case, the bezel's "light cream colour" may actually be aged white, which would match the Grant's interior.

That sounds about right
 

Hanno sounds right. Also the gauges in the box face the right hand side of the hull.
