# 99 Vintage Rockwell NYC Taxi Cab Meter For Display

Description

These meters were used on all New York City Cabs and all over the country.
They were electrically and mechanically devices.
In the early 1970’s they were being replaced by electronically operated meters.
This type of meter normally runs on 12 Volt DC for the lights and timer for advancing the fair when waiting. The fair also advances when moving by a speedometer drive cable connection.
This meter has been striped, bead blasted, cleaned, lubricated and painted.
The case is yellow. The flag is red.
The plastic face is original.
When the Red Flag is rotated the openings go thru a cycle & resets.
The red vacant plate moves up and down.
The EXTRA wheel advances with a push of the button.
The counters on the top record:
Total Miles
Paid Miles
Units
Trips
A tamper- proof seal has been added.
It has pads on the bottom  for display.
The Electrical cable & Speedometer cable is NOT included.
I    confirm the electrical, mechanical or speedometer operation for actual use.
It is listed as non- functioning for display only.
You will not be disappointed with this one.
I have offered many of these since 2001. I now have another one to offer again.
This is the original. Made in the USA by American craftsman!
As always since 2001, SATISFACTION GUARANTEED with your bid returned for any reason.
