I have "SW" Stewart Warner guages that came on our buggy from around '78. They don't look as vintage as yours. I tried to find new ones of the same brand when I purchased the buggy a couple of years ago, but found nothing. I can only assume that they are no longer in business.

I installed these three gauges out of a 914 in this Speedster replica. The replica was a vw pan based car and the gauges and tach hooked up with no issues. I never had the chance to verify the accuracy in regards to the measurement of speed in that car so I can't vouch for that. The tach is larger then the speedo and accessory gauge but for the life of me I can't remember what the diameter was. I bet you could ask at www.speedsterowners.com and they could tell you. I got all 3 off ebay for $100.00. Image
