WTB- 100 MPH speedo

Anyone have a 100 mph speedo, or know where I can buy a new one? I have now fixed everything to do with my speedometer and after I was all done the speedo itself stripped out on me. So now im back to square 1. Can anyone help or should I just buy an 85mph one?

I think I have a real nice one removed from a 74 GMC. I can also look for the TG straps and hardware if you like.

Here is the speedo I have. Does it match yours?

It appears to be identical. How much? Also what could I do about the mileage?

How many do you want?? I think I have 4-5 of them.

As for the mileage, there is a way to reset it, but I haven't done it without breaking it or been able to put it back together.

How does $20 shipped sound? The early speedos are pretty simple in style, they got a little fancier in the later part of the 70's. As far as resetting, I tried on one...but couldn't figure out how without ruining it (I had it nearly completely apart). I am sure a local gauge restoration shop could help you out.

My PAYPAL is still the same. If you need any other gauges from this cluster, let me know...I'll include them as well.

The straps will be free when I get them, you just pay to ship. :)

This may sound funny!! But I could really use those 2 green (signals) and 1 blue (high beam) colored tabs. The light shines through them. Will you part with them?

Of course, they are yours.

Just send the $20...we'll worry about the TG chains later.

I'll box it up tonight.

Hey Jeff. Is the plastic cover any good? I am looking for a near mint one as well. Then I will finally be able to put my dash back together. Also is that a Napa part # in that picture for 73 TG straps?? lol
