Speedometer

"Technically speaking the GMC speedometer dash gauge is based on the 70-72
Olds Cutlass. There are numerous restoration replacements for those
vehicles and you might even find one calibrated in kilometers."



Good to know, thanks for that. Are you aware of any compatible mechanical
mph speedometer that has a resettable trip odometer?

Bob,

Somewhere I've got a speedo that I modified many years ago for our Eleganza.
I bought an early speedo that was badly worn at the Swap Meet at a GMCMI
Convention. I then went to the junkyard looking for a speedo that had all
the
right pieces in the right location. Found on in, IIRC, a Buick Special. I
don't
remember the year, unfortunately. Had a skillful friend cut the hole in the
face
of the GMC speedo. I will have to look for that unit when we get home.
I'm sure I've still got it somewhere. ( and I did mean somewhere)
