WANTED Speedometer Dodge Polara 1965

[markitzero]

Hi guys,

I'm looking for something for my Polara again.
Since my speedometer broke, find one that is in good working order.
There is one on Ebay, but far too expensive for the condition.
Maybe someone has something. :-D

Best regards
Frank

You may want to check the cable and possibly try taking it apart and lubricting it. You may also be able to find one at a swap meet. Here’s the link to some helpful information.

......the cable is new and ok...!
A highway drive with 130 km/h kills the Speedometer. ;-)
Thanks for the Information.

I have a couple laying around, but I'm not sure how pretty they are. I wouldn't have kept them if they didn't work when put up, but I don't have much for testing purposes other than a drill

.... do you have a few pictures?

When you say it kills it, what do you mean?

 

[markitzero]

The inside clacks and clicks, the speedometer needle sticks at 20 miles, the odometer no longer turns.

Yup, sounds like is pretty messed up. Try some swap meets

You can always swap the guts into your bezel/holder

I checked the ones on the shelf and none are in decent condition. Sorry, they seem to have gotten infected with some sort of gummy crud as they don't spin smoothly.
