Re: Palf's Little Blue Jimmy
As mentioned in an earlier post, my speedometer needle broke from all the bouncing it did because of the speedo cable (that is my guess since lubricating it a while back helped for a short while). I got into the dash today and pulled out the speedo. I had an extra needle, but my guess is it is from a 67-72 era speedo as the mount was wrong. I decided to just swap out the whole unit with a spare I had. I wanted to kinda keep the original since that is the correct mileage, but I was afraid I would break the pointer removing it. So swap the buggers out. Marked the original mileage on the back of the newer speedo. She's all back in just awaiting the arrival of the new speedo cable. Hopefully by this weekend.
So now I got a working winder again and hopefully a working (though slightly off) speedo.
