I have all the parts and never put the speedometer back together. I bought a few over the years. I have a odemeter dial with all new decals, the base, a new needle, and the guts, bezel, gaskets, and the glass. I have a few extra other parts here and there also. Let me know if you need it Sid, the hardest part to find is the odometer.

The odometer cost me somewhere around 80 or 90 dollars, I can group all my speedometer parts together for 200, shipping should go in a "if it fits it ships" box for 20 dollars. I can take a picture of everything together so you can make a decision and not be blindsided. Let me know if you are interested. Thanks John
