Gauge question

I've been approached by a gauge restoration company in the USA with a couple of questions about the gauge below. Two questions - any ideas what it came from ? To me it looks like a late 1960's gauge but could have come from several models. And secondly does anyone have a similar looking donor gauge they'd like to sell so they can make one good one from the two ? If so, PM me and I'll pass along their contact info.

Sure as heck looks like my 68 Cobra speedo, the chrome ring is the same too.

Looks like the speedo on my 1969 T350. Was also used on early T250 & T500.

Thank you all for your replies - confirms what I thought as far as models. Does anyone have one they want to sell that has a decent face - I suppose it doesn't have to be functional as it will be a donor for parts. If so, just contact Buz (email is buz@seattlespeedometer.com) directly. And by the way - their shop might be an alternate option for gauge repairs for folks in the USA - please note I haven't tried them personally and so do not have first hand knowledge. But they do have the tooling for rolling the crimped ring on and off the K through B gauge sets as the Lavarda clocks are the same design :D . Web site is:
