Default Help with Odometer inops

Hi,

The odometer in my '67 does not work. Does anybody have experience in repairing it? Is there a repair kit available?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't think there's a kit available, and I wouldn't mess with it.

There is a very good guy in Palm Beach Gardens who specializes in all Corvette gauges. I can't remember the name of the company right now, but he's the best.

If you inquire someone in my 'Vette club, I know you will find him.

Usually the little nylon gear strips. I don't know if there's a kit either. I'd take the speedo out and have it gone through. One more thing...make sure that the trip odo cable is disengaged. Sometimes that will foul things up. Chuck

why pay roger's clocks prices when you can do it yourself?

...we met this guy at carlisle and he is great, will walk you through what needs to be done and will sell you the gears
