Well, the speedometer in my son's '63 Belvee was not working. Now, I could have spent 30 dollars plus shipping for a USED one, or 54 dollars and shipping for a 'new' one. NOT ME.
1) Jacked-up the rear of car.
2) Diagnosed the cable was not turning by looking at speedomater-end of cable.
3) Took the cable off the trans.
4) Diagnosed the pinion was 'wallered-out' on the inside.
5) Cleaned and prepped the pinion.
6) Applied resin and hardener to the area by a syringe, carefully keeping the pinion vertical.
7) Pushed the cable in place, and let dry overnight in vertical position.
8) Replaced the cable and...'WALLAH', Speedometer WORKS ! It has kept working for the past 100 miles...I suspect this 'riggin' will keep working well.
