What Year?

Autocrosser
Cleaning up and found this on a shelf.
Later than '74, pre Bertone.
Any idea what year it is? Several years?

Pretty sure the silver face plate was a 1978 feature. At least my 78 has it.
 
Slow Down light says it came from a car with catalytic converter, so later than ‘78 (unless California cars got cats sooner).

My 78 has the cat... or had the cat in this case.
 
Ok, thanks for the help. This one apparently came from Judge Parker's '78? autocrosser.
I must have another one from a non-cat car that I haven't found yet.
Maybe I should have posted this in the "hoarding" thread...
 
CA got cats in 1975 for the X1/9. What year did the voltmeter replace the oil pressure gauge? That would narrow it down. I know my 79 motor had no place for an oil pressure sender. Did that start with the 1500s or were later 1300s that way as well?
 
My 78 USA Toho version has the same cluster minus the silver face. It also had the Cat and slow down light.

My ‘78 bought new in Texas didn’t have the cat or slowdown light, not sure about the silver face. I expect that very few changes correspond exactly to the model year changes.
