Jbjgo Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 It appears my 1918 Dodge roadster has the wrong speedometer. The parts book looks like should be a needle speedo with black face. Mine is a barrel speedo and looks like possibly a 1920 or so. Interesting someone added a right angle drive at the transmission since, from a prior thread, the 1918 is a left turning speedo and the later right? Looking for correct one if I can find and willing to swap my later model if helps. Also looking for some of the headlight rim springs. Any help gratefully appreciated.

Willy Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I also have a 24 (also unrestored), and have a white/needle speedo, but don't know if that's right or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72caddy Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 1918-1920, I will confirm tonight when I review the parts book, should use the Jones-Manville Model 115. This a left hand Speedo, black face with white numbers.Not sure what the 24 would use but the barrel version came after the black face Maybe you guys should trade?

Jbjgo Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 My parts book says the 115 ran thru at least 1920 but do not have later book. There was an early Van Sicklin but appears otherwise speedos were needle with earlier white face and later black. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
