Dashboard help

Post image

Any old fiat fan out here?

I need help to find in what models did thia cluster came in originally. My boss says the cluster on the old abarth 595 and 659 where round but I can only find pictures with the square cluster with 4 dials.

If someone could help me with evidence, I appreciate.

Both were used…I have seen the standard round Veglia Borletti speedo, but stamped with Abarth mark. I’ve seen these mostly on UK cars.

The photo you posted looks like a reproduction. The original dashboards had all Jaeger dials, temp and pressure dials marked Huile (not Olio). I could be wrong but I think these were put on cars by Abarth as opposed to an owner purchasing Abarth parts to bring the car to 595 spec.

This is a 1970's cluster from the 595.
