Hello I/m Howard New member to the forum . I'm looking for the center mount circular pod for the Mark I Austin mini cooper 850. I have a 1961 Austin Mini 850

Original ones are hard to find. Very early ones made of paper are virtually impossible to find.

Check with the folks at Heritage Garage in CA. They had the speedo pod reproduced a few years ago. Hopefully they will still have some in stock.

(Call them. I don't remember ever having luck finding parts availability on their web site).
 
Thanks Doug I checked on the https://www.heritagegarage.com/ site and saw the picture of the housing pod then saw the company name on the side. It is Rhino Industries in Oregon and they are $12.00 cheaper in price . New pod from Rhino is $64.00 plus postage,shipping .
Thanks again
 
Thank you for the tip. The one on my car is hidden behind the 3-gauge oval panel so it can't be seen. Good thing. Mine is glued, and reinforced with sheet metal and pop rivets to hold it together. Since it has held for 10+ years and can't be seen I will leave it until I have to replace it!
