Default Speedometer: Rebuild or reproduction?

Are the reproduction speedometers decent, or am I better off getting an original rebuilt?

If the latter, who is advised?

Eric, I had my entire gauge cluster redone including speedometer, odometer & tach.(&amp,clk,fuel,temp)

I talked with Rick Nelson as to who he would use & recommend. He gave me a couple of

choices that he has used and I went with this one: http://www.gaugeguys.com/ .

I was pleased with the result. Maybe give Rick a shout to further your choice. There was

one he wouldn't use, I can PM you that one if you like.

Good luck if you choose non-repop. DH

I would avoid repop at all costs.
