    FA: Rare VDO 180mph speedometer for UK 911 Carrera 2.7 $199 NR

    I received this in a box of race parts that came with a 1970 911S which I recently purchased. It was alongside a genuine 2.8 RSR 10,000 RPM tachometer (not included, see my other auction). According to a previous owner, the gauges were bought at a dealer in the UK in late 1973, but I have no documentation to back that up. The dates stamped into the housing reads 8/73 (see pics) and the ink stamp reads 9/73, so these are definitely of that vintage.

    According to my research, this is a rare 180mph speedometer for a UK spec 911 Carrera 2.7. The part number is 911 641 506 29, and it has the warning light for the parking lamps at the top of the gauge which indicates a genuine Carrera speedometer.
