        Up for bid is this professionally serviced NOS 1950-53 Chevrolet / GMC truck speedometer. While unit is out of box NOS (New Old Stock) , I have listed this as remanufactured since it has received some minor mechanical servicing to assure reliable long life and also some minor cosmetic work (paint) on the bezel ring and housing case. Speedometer is correct for 1950-53 Chevrolet truck and 1952-53 GMC using the 90mph speedometer. This is an original General motors AC unit not a reproduction and was located buried in the old inventory of a local speedometer shop. Unit has been freshly serviced having the speed unit fully inspected, cleaned, lubricated and calibrated. The all original speedometer head has survived the years very well with original superb cosmetics as can be seen in the last 3 pictures taken after removal from housing prior to servicing.  Mechanically it is better than NOS since the speed unit has been freshly serviced and in addition has had an original AC service replacement nylon odometer cross gear upgrade for longer  service life (the original cross gear on older AC speedos were steel and usually lasted only 75000 miles before stripping the steel magnet shaft worm it meshes with). Calibration is US standard 1:1 or 60mph indicated at 1000 cable rpm. This speedometer will therefore work on most any US production car or truck using a mechanical (cable driven) speedometer. Unit fits panel hole of approximately 5-1/4" mounting from back of dash. Calibration has been set using a master certified speedometer test stand and unit functions as new with spot-on accuracy. The chrome on the bezel was bad from years in storage and has been finished in black paint. (I also painted the housing which had surface rust). All other cosmetics are original and as new. Unit is in excellent condition in all respects and is ready to install. Satisfaction is guaranteed. USPS worldwide shipping. Any questions e-mail for prompt reply. Don't miss this opportunity on this very nice original perfect functioning AC speedometer for your vintage Chevy or GMC truck or other vintage application.

Thanks for looking!

Fabulous Fords go on forever at California show

Mon, 20 Apr 2009

While the Mustang got its own celebration two days earlier on the other side of the country at Barber Motorsports Park in Alabama, on Sunday, the annual Fabulous Fords Forever show in California honored all Blue Oval creations of the last 100 years. From the Model T to the new Mustang, there were hundreds of Ford cars and a few trucks spread out across the parking lot of Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park. This was the 24th running of the show, which was started by Ford and a herd of Mustang clubs as a kickoff to the car-show season.

Didn’t The Bentley Boys Do Well?

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

AS Bentley gears up for a fulltime return to the racetrack, the weekend saw the Crewe-based luxury car maker score a solid fourth place overall at the Gulf 12 Hours of Abu Dhabi. Approached as a dress rehearsal ahead of the team’s attack on the 2014 Blancpain Endurance Series, the three driver-strong outfit achieved a creditable third and fourth place finishes in the two six-hour races at the Yas Marina circuit. The race programme – the first factory-backed activity since its 2003 Le Mans win – sees the firm use a Continental GT producing 600 horsepower in competition trim.
