Someone I have used and had good success is Mike Mizrahi, previously with Nisonger. 914-536-1346;Tom does tachs not speedometers. Do a search on this forum-there are a few places that rebuilds them. Or take a chance and buy a used one.

As I remember, Mike Mizrahi was significantly less than that.The fellow i used is on the west coast. Rebuild parts as nec. clean etc 700 $ us approx
Is it reasonable to disconnect at the transmission only, and carefully chuck the center shaft into a drill, and turn counterclockwise, watching the speedo? This would clarify that the speedo end was engagingThere is a gear in tail shaft to turn the center shaft in the speedo cable.
Are you sure the cable is good? Where did you get the cable? How much does the shaft extend from the connectors on each end?
I'd start by removing the speedo cable from the car, lay it out straight, turn the shaft on one end (counter clockwise is the normal rotation I believe) and verify the shaft on the other end turns.

The shaft is 'free floating' within the cable and can easily be pulled out completely. Perhaps the shaft just pulled out of the transmission when you removed the speedo? As I recall, less than a half inch or so sticks out when everything is in place. Do you have more than that showing? If so, you might be able to push it back in from there. If not, it has been a long time since I replaced one, but I think you could crawl under the car and unscrew the transmission end of the cable from the tranny and see if the shaft is still connected there.sent the speedo to Mike Mizrahi , now I drove it around the block and found the cable is not turning , it is a new cable so must be in trans ,
