I know many of you are still on parole, but I need odometer parts...
The intermediate plastic gear/shaft driving the odometer is stripped on my 68 ish patrol. My spare assy from a 69 is completely different in construction. And...it has a different problem. The 1/10th drum on the odo wheel is internally stripped of its tiny gear notch. I need the 1969 odo drum,( or the 1/10th wheel) to fix that assy.
The 68ish assy needs the plastic cross shaft gear. The early speedo head assy is of heavy cast construction. The 69 is of stamped and bent sheet metal.
If any of you 'odo rollers ' can help me out, I'll put in a good word to the warden.
Thanks, Mild Bill

'Cmon Bill -- how about some evidence of the parts your talking about? Are you camera shy? Or, has your odo already been rolled and now you're worried that that confidential informant in AZ -- we all know who that is
-- will rat you out to the authorities like he did to me?
There are at least a couple types of speedos that I've seen. Shoot over some close ups of the mechanisms for comparison.
