Good point on that. I always forget the early 200 series cars used mechanical speedometers. Too accustomed to the 700 series which were electronic speedo reading off the diff for all years of their production.

Did M47I have a mechanical speedo cable drive? So if he could find an early year M47 it would work but M47II would not?
