Hi all
Im continuing my clear up of parts and in amongst hundreds of bits of twisted alloy there are a few parts I’m hoping may be worth keeping out and not sending back to the bucket!! All are from Spitfire MK1s
One is presumably is an instrument that has lost its face/dial but is it possible to tell which instrument?
Next is bakerlite presumably part of radio, if so do the numbers tell us anything more?
Next there is an assembly marked piece showing the numbers 300 for Mark I and then 159, is this 15 for struts and braving and drawing number 9? There is then the number N1403 next to inspection stamp, would that be inspectors number?
Lastly is a small switch. Is it a cockpit switch or somekind of electrical or other.
I know they are all tooty bits and appreciate the time of anyone who can help me ID them.
Thanks in advance
Steve
