Default British instruments

Hi

I'm looking for any British instruments that you might have for sale, suitable for a British carrier (or any other British carrier parts looking for a new home). Also looking for pictures of British dash panels to help with the build.

Thanks

Ben

Question

Hi all - coincidently I had a call from an Oz aquaintance about instruments for his English Carrier. The panels in the Oz Carriers were all sourced from Ford truck. Were the English instruments also sourced from a truck manufacturer, and if so, who?
