Need Speedometer part

Does anyone have an 84 to 90-something junk speedometer lying around?

I just need a "tenths" wheel for the odometer. Mine broke so I moved it to the left and it does work, but won't go past 4** cause that's where the ratchet tooth broke.

If anyone has one, send me a PM. I know this should be in the trades n freebies, but I know it'd get no results there.

Thanks guys

t150vej,
I have been telling myself I'm going to try to fix this speedo someday.
It is an aftermarket Custom Chrome speedo/tach.
Does it look at all like it's what you need?

That's a good pic megawatt and now I'm embarassed... been 3 months since I was into it and don't remember "exactly" what the inside of the red wheel looked like. Do remember one of the wheels is different but I took it all apart and made it work.

I was going to take the dash off this weekend and clean the dust out and begging for a part came to mind. Let me get it off tomorrow and look again. Thanks MW

What's wrong with that one anyway?

Is there a good repair shop for non-digital speedometers? I have a bad odometer as well.

The framework that holds all the number wheels and gears is broken where it attaches to the speedo casing on the bottom and was vibrating making a weird noise...took me a while to find it.
This is one of the speedo/tachs they offered about 5 years ago.
I replaced it with their speedo/tach II model which superseded the broken one.

beemervet,
San Diego Speedo Tach, Inc. repaired a speedo off a '66 Police Special I owned a zillion years ago.
They may be able to help you.

These have been recommended by people who's opinion I trust from my Esprit list:

I haven't dealt with them personally.
