    Someone will step in here in a minute and tell you, point-blank. But I'd guess a '32 or '33. This car obviously has the electric remote oil level feature, which shares a gauge with the gasoline sender. You pushed a button on the dash and got an oil level reading. I think that started in '29. Neat feature...why don't they have those anymore?
  • It fits a 33 Terraplane, but what I do find to be unusual is that I thought only the T8's had the fuel-oil level gage and the T6 had just a fuel gage. Maybe the late 33 T6 deluxe model had the fuel-oil gage also. I have two 33T6 gages that are fuel gage only.

    Yes, the fuel-oil gage works the same way as the 29 to 31 Essex/Hudson. A small button was mounted along the lower edge of the dash panel, you push the button to read the oil level.

    Gosh, the only one I have ever noticed is one that Tom owns. I was going to use it for a reference to this thread but wasn't for sure. Now I know-Thanks Tom
