Hi All,
I'm attempting to repair the speedometer on my '56. Cable and drive are working. It appears that the drive gear has disintegrated. I'm not having much luck finding one, or even a photo of what it looks like.
Can anyone help with parts, guidance, or photos?

Is it the same unit as a '56 Thunderbird ?, one on sale on Ebay;

Looks like the driven gear is sacrificial nylon;

Here is a Mercury version for '56;

Mac's have a whole range of white unit ratios;

..the question is which one is right for a Mkii?
