(2) Porsche 911 and AC Speedometers -- Mopar Swap Meet @ Woodley Park in Van Nuys -- Sunday, April 14, 2019


Somebody dropped this speedometer...  too bad

On older Porsche cars, the gauges were held in place on the dash by these ribbed gaskets, so they're pretty easy to remove.


Made in September of 1971.  Unfortunately, Porsche (& VW) gauges (made by VDO) have bezels that are crimped over on their back edges continuously.  So to remove the bezel, you have to unbend a majority of the flanged over edge.  I need to see if someone makes a tool to do this...
