OD speedo

[Green67Alpine]

Hi Folks, Looking for an "experienced" O D speedo,(non-syncro if that matters) red needle, does not need to be perfect but I'd like a presentable one, I'm tired of driving over 100 mph , when I drive down the street. Also looking for a handful of "lift dot" studs, these need not be silver, but the threads should be serviceable.

Thanks, Tom j

You could get your speedo Re-Calibrated.

Take it out and send it to MOMA. Tell them everything you want and "bam", it's done.

Tom: What series Alpine do you want the speedometer for? I have a slightly used - 43 miles on the trip odometer - overdrive speedometer with a white needle for an early series Alpine. According to the parts manual it should fit Series I and II up to vin number B 9105974. These would be non-synchro transmissions. If it fits your needs I will sell it at a reasonable price.

You may also consider using a conversion box between the tranny and the speedometer. I used United Speedometer Service to build a conversion box so that my Series V speedometer would read accurately with my 5 speed transmission. Cost was about $100 and the speedometer is "spot on".

Tom,
Buy Pauls to run while you have yours reworked, I am sure you will be able to sell it to someone when it is done, for what you have in it.

Is the early speedo geared the same as a later one? I need one for an SIV.
