ACME Garage Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I just purchased this car (1958 Plymouth Fury) and thought it was a Canadian export after looking at the dash, but after doing my own research, I have determined the following:1. THe VIN and title state LP276xxx and that denotes a Detriot-built car - not export. The 4th character "7" should be a letter if it was Canadian built or Export model.2. More Important - Canada did not convert to metric until 1976 and even then, they used speedos with both KPH and MPH.I have not seen proof of a metric-only speedo anywhere in Canada-ever, espesiclly before the 70's.I would like some help on this one - Any info is greatly appreciated.Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleek Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Please look at the pictures in the link on the above mentioned thread that I sent you earlier (fleek). The link is almost at the end of the thread. There are two good photos of your speedometer in european cars in that link. Should help with your search.
