This is about 25% of the instruments



Auto feather switches



Temp sensors



Bendix BMEP gauge , the range is correct for a DC-6 but it's only a single indicator not dual.

It's like Christmas , having a lot of fun doing the research on these

Check the serial numbers on the gauges... it usually gives you an indication of when they were made, or at least ordered. This is true at least for gauges made for US Army Air Force, and US Air Force contracts. The first two numbers are usually the from the fiscal year they were ordered in... just like the aircraft.

Thanks for the tip Richard

Most of the MAP guage serial numbers start with AC 42-xxx or AF 43-xxx

So that makes them 1942 to 1943.
