+speedometer +needle
The gauge cluster and speedo housing often got wet because of leaking windshield seals. Perhaps yours is rusted on. (?)
The only advice that I can give is to be careful when removing. I tried to remove the needle on a donor speedometer for my '54 and promptly broke the shaft. I put very little pressure and did not twist. But it still broke. The shaft was very brittle.
Then I pried the needle off of the shaft of my "real" speedo. Gently pulled straight up. No problem. Whew!
