Here is a guy selling a 52 NOS speedo his BIN is $200 I have 4 speedo's in my parts supply. They are NOS most I paid was $60. For $20 I got a NOS speedo and electric clock for a 51.
Guys have to stop overpricing these parts then they wonder why they don't sell.

Some people think that because a part is old that it's worth a hefty sum. Although deals can be had, someone in a hurry to finish a retoration may just bite on something like this. That's probably what the seller is hoping for. Either that or theseller has lots of time on their hands and likes to relist things.

What a bargain for an NOS part that needs restoration. The next time you're in my area, we'll get together, get hopped-up on goof balls, and crank out a few dozen Hudsons fenders on the English wheel. Then, we can bury them, did them up in a few years, and sell them on eBay for a $1,000.00 each.
