FS: Speedometer from 73T

[gruen911]

Guys,
This MPH speedo came off of my 73T when switching over to a KPH speedo for Europe. It is concourse quality and works flawlessly. No needle bounce whatsoever, and no disappointments. Asking $150.00 + shipping.

Hi ~ do you still have the speedo for sale ? I have a 73.5 do you think it's the same ( but working ) Ron

Ron, I will guarantee it.
It was literally just pulled out of my car two weeks ago, and I was reluctant to take it out because it looks and functions flawlessly.
I posted this stuff here first because it is good. I would prefer that someone here get it before I sold it to some stranger on EBay.

Hummmm......how mutch do you think shipping will be to Pine Bush , NY 12566

I am in Munich Germany.
I will charge you $12 shipping and pay the difference out of my own pocket.
The only downside for you will be a 1-2 week wait to get the speedo.
Deutsche Post is very reliable and has good tracking (they also don't shoot their fellow employees when they come to work with an attitude .

I just looked more carefuly at my speedometer and the parking light indicator is located on the bottom just above the VDO markings so I'll have to pass on the unit Thanks tho . Ron

Garth - isn't that speedo for '74-on models ?

[gruen911]

Hi Andy,
I thought it was for a 69-73 911, but I am not sure now. I will look for a date stamp tomorrow morning. I am more of a 64-67 specialist with 911 gauges.

It would make sense if this is the 74 and up unit since your car is a 73.5. But won't you need this when you return to the U.S.A.

The thought crossed my mind Rick. Most likely I will needing a pre-68 speedo though if/when I move back
Okay, so I have looked the back of this speedo over a few times, and there are no embossed numbers stamped into the back or side. There is a sticker on it with the 120 026/033/001. There is also a green triangular ink stamp on the back with two rows of four numbers each, but they are smeared and are hard to read. The top numbers are 14--, and the four numbers below that are 12--. Your guess is as good as mine?
However, one other thing I just noticed when looking at the speedo more is that the center circle upon which the speedo needle is mounted is black on the one I have. Whereas on the earlier year models it is chrome. So it looks like Rick could be right. This speedo is correct for a 74' or later year car. Does anyone know if Rick is right about the 73.5 T's using 74 model year parts (like the CIS). Maybe this is correct for a 73.5 car? My car was built midyear 73. Wouldn't Porsche have started production of the 74 cars after August of 73'?
