Found this today by an old stone wall in the middle of the woods. Took me awhile to figure out that it was a speedometer. I'm guessing it's for a motorcycle, but I could be wrong. It's really toasted, but maybe someone can identify it. Any help on this one would be appreciated.

Sorry, forgot this other part. Found it in the same area. Probably the face of the speedometer.

I am not sure what it is but I don't think it is a motorcycle speedo.

Indian Steve, you are right! I thought it was a motorcycle speedometer because this area is surrounded by stone walls with only a small opening on one side. There's no way a car could drive into this spot. But I guess someone randomly dumped it there.

It's actually a Stewart Warner 1930-31 Ford Model A speedometer. Very weird, since I just found a 1930-31 Model A hubcap at another site five miles away! Guess I'll be checking out that area for more Model A parts today!

not to mention my age, but my cousin had a model A with a speedo like that

I would have guessed 2014 Harley. They are known for outdated and over priced technology.
