Iirc theyre early SR clocks bud, if they were the six dial ones then they would be sport spec ones but having said that though im fairly sure SR's had six dial clocks until the mk2 ones where they were dropped to an extra over the four dial ones so im not overy sure:tard:

Definately not mk2 bud you can see the mk1 dash around them in the pic and you can tell by the style of them theyre 100% mk1:thumb:

look like sr / gte dials with electronis led light gauges for battery and oil pressure - never seen a set in operation though. Prob light uo like the digi dash in little rows...

the later sr/gte clocks are the ones you want as look far better with all the needles.

If they're the same as the Mk2 ones which i assume they are, nothing even close to that technical, they just light up red when oil/battery levels are low!

only reason say mk2 is that the battery and oil dont have a needle like mk1 gte clocks would have??? dont go by what i say though, plenty more people on here know loads more than me

Thats what i was thinking but the other ones pictured dont have the oil/voltmeter gauges so im very confuddled as i thought all rev counter models would have the above clocks!

27-02-09, 12:46 AM
those above are the same as my 1988 Nova SR...

I had some some of those dials in my 1988 mk1 Antibes, they top 2 dials (battery and oil) light up red.

The 6 dial ones came in early SR's, Sports and Spiders - and probably a few more too..

Spudly

Well ill happily say im convinced that theyre antibes specific ones then!

The 6 dial ones look nicer though.
