Bruce:
I would definitely use a Stewart model 160A, pictured on page 62 of Russ's speedometer book. I have one in my 1925, and it's a great speedometer, and is very easy to find parts for. I would recommend servicing it prior to use. The rest of the components are easy to find as well. Good luck.

Hey Larry; Thanks for the info, but I'm in Florida and my books are at home. Do you have a pic of the Stewart 160A. I'm looking at a Stewart with the odometer reset wheel to the right and above the center line of the face and fits through a slot in the cover/mounting ring. Cheers : Bruce

Hi Dan : Thanks for the picture. That's what I thought it was. Where are you, I'm in Zephyrhills. Cheers : Bruce

Bruce: If you need the rest of the components, contact Kim Dobbins. He just got some very nice late cables and swivels and other parts.
