dash cluster ID

Post by Forumadmin »

Attached is a pic of what I assume is a dash cluster from a Jowett. This is based on the fact that the Oil gauge says JOWETT. I am hoping that you can help me ID the correct models and years that it would fit.
Thanks

Dash instrument cluster

Post by Alastair Gregg »

Hello Mark

Keith has been a master of brevity with his answer, however if I may, I will try to flesh it out a little for you.

The Jowett Bradford started production in 1946 and the last few were sold in 1953. It was a development (but not a quantum leap) from the Jowett pre war design. It was a commercial vehicle capable of a 10Cwt payload. It was initially available as a van then a utility able to seat 6 people and even a small Lorry (pickup). Around 40,000 were made but only a few hundred survive. Sadly however the value of your dash panel and even a fully restored Bradford is not great. A good one may fetch £3500 and an excellent one as much as £6000. If you would like to know a little more I can point you in the direction of those far more knowlegable than I.
Compliments of the Season,

Alastair Gregg
