[QUOTE="Twinpots, post: 354291, member: 7329"] When I bought my 1967 Bonneville the trip meter didn't work. With no fuel gauge this is a very helpful (important) feature. I was very lucky that within a 20 minute drive is a company called Lionel Otto who specialize in repairing any type of gauges, especially classic ones. Not cheap but they completely repaired my original Grey faced Smiths speedo. I also had them change it from reading in Km's to Miles to suit Australia. I did have to supply them with a non functioning "mph" speedo to make the change. I am sure you have someone more local but as I have used USA suppliers many times I see no reason you couldn't send your speedo to them here in Australia. They have a good reputation and I have been lucky to actually visit their workshop and see it first hand. My speedo is now spot on and super accurate. This is one job I could not attempt myself. Just removing the glass is a major headache as the chrome bevel has to be cut to remove it. [/QUOTE]
