WANTED:

I'm looking for a speedo to suit a 1960 bug,
preferably one of that vintage, obviously MPH,
just to be original as the one I have is a later one with a KPH face glued on.
If anyone is interested I can swap a Bay-window speedo cluster and tray-side clamps from a low-light single cab or I can just buy with money😎

THERE ARE GENUINE kmh ONES FROM THAT ERA

remembering that Europe used KMH speedos...

so German made beetles for Europe would be in KMH...

these pop up on EBay now & then too....
