Studebaker Speedometer (fits Silver/golden Hawk) Pn# 58oagf5 Rat Rod Hot Rod Car on 2040-parts.com
Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas, US
I bought this off eBay about 2 1/2 to 3 years ago to replace my '59 LARKS speedometer but the guy listing it claimed It would fit, GUESS WHAT! !??? LOL that's right it doesn't. Fit the larks at least not the 1959-60's Larks. Not sure about the later ones?!! Hmnn anyways the chrome ring measures in at 4 1/2" diameter the body of the unit measures in at 4 1/4" so the hole this goes in is between 4 1/4" to around 4 7/8", unless you have a dress ring to prevent it from falling through.
As far as operation condition I hooked the old drill up to it ( LOW RPM) to test it and the needle rose and fell smoothly, I cannot guarantee the accuracy because I do not know the ratio at which it was designed to turn.That being said I have to sell it "AS IS!!!"
I took pictures just before listing then ran some super fine sandpaper over the pitting on the chrome and it looks liks about 80% of it will be able to be removed...possibly more????
The part number that is stamped on unit is shown in picture...no other identifiable marks were noted. See pics for condition they speak pretty well....lol!!!
Thanks for looking......NOW BID BID BIDDDDD!!!!!!! AGAIN!!! MOHAHAHAHHAA!!!!
