I visited my brother in Tulsa OK, this weekend . . . and found out what happened to my missing ’84 125 MPH police speedometer.
Several years back, he was traveling through OKC and a wheel came off of his trailer (he had bought a ’70 (or ’71) ‘Cuda convertible (in pieces) that he was hauling). We off-loaded all but the shell in my garage for a while so he could get trailer fixed. He got trailer fixed, repacked and he went on his way. That might have been 10 years ago – I can’t remember.
We went to his garage, this weekend, to show the progress he has on his ‘Cuda and guess what I found in a pole barn nearby, my missing instrument cluster (actually, the entire bin is mine).
No lid and this is pretty much as I had found it (except I drained out 20+ gallons of water first).
It appears my bin got packed up with his stuff that day, and on top of that, not protected from the elements. Most of the contents of that bin, I had to toss out.
That cluster only had 30k miles on it and I have a feeling it won’t be worth fixing.
Does anyone happen to have a spare 125 MPH M-body speedometer they are willing to part with?
