Dear all,

I'm on a search for an original Speedometer Cable for a Post war 2 litre car.

I'm looking for the original steel armoured type which I believe had brass
fixtures at the ends.

If anybody has one for sale or would know about anybody that might have
one for sale I would be most grateful to know.

I can be reached on jonas (at) jonaslindvall dot com

Or +46709266070

Many thanks in advance for any help.

Kind regards

Jonas

Hello,

for my prewar AC I had one made by a specialist in Germany - he can do almost anything either by drawing or sample and pricing is very reasonable: https://www.taflexa.de  Might be worth to contact them.

Good luck and kind regards,
Jurgen

Dear Jürgen,

Thanks for the tip, I will definitely contact them. Silly question but do you know
if they speak English?

I guess I'll find out sooner or later!

Regardless I appreciate the info and that you took time to post.

Kind regards

Jonas

Hi Jonas

Are you talking about a 2 litre saloon?

If so I will look in my collection of parts as I think I have one, will check over weekend.

A car is only original once, but, you can modify it as many times as you like.

My car my rules.

Hi Gary,

Sorry for my late reply. Also sorry to hear that you couldn't find any!

If one does materialise please keep me in mind.

Good morning all,

A friend needs a speedometer cable for his 16/80.
Are these a standard length? I was only given the speedometer side of the broken cable and the rest is apparently still on the gearbox.

Thanks in advance.

Speedograph Richfield  Nottingham should be able to supply a replacement cable but as it is a PVT they do not stock them, they do stock post war  AC car types, you will need to send the old one so they know the type & terminations required.

Thank you Robin. They rebuilt the tacho of my Ace a few years ago. Very pleased with their work.
I will check with my friend if he can give me the rest of the cable.
