Speedometer repair recommendation

[scott12180]

I have a 1920's Stewart speedometer with the rotating numbers --- not a needle.

Actually, I have parts of at least three, none of which are good, from which I am looking for someone to do a repair/restoration to give me one good unit.

Can anyone recommend a good, reliable speedometer repair shop who is knowledgeable on 1920's speedometers?

Thanks --- Scott

What vehicle is it for? Someone here may have a good, complete unit for the correct car/truck.

It's for a 1924 Franklin. I could try to post a photo. . .

But it would be great if someone had a spare. I suppose they fit many cars of the 1920's. Speed dial above, odometer to the left below that with trip-meter to the right. Drive cable comes out the bottom.

Mostly I need a cable, though, as that's missing. It appears to be about 4 feet long and driven from the rear of the transmission.

Bob's Speedometer. They have done several similar speedos for us.

Scott, ditto on Bob's for repair and replacement work. He will even make you up a cable with the correct ends. You will have to send him a pic of the transmission end and the length you need. You send the speedo to him and he will give you a price, if not what you want, he just sends it back to you. As I remember it was about $250 to have my speedo rebuilt and he said that it would probably be about $200 to build a cable with the sleeve and connectors. These prices were a few years ago.
