BrothersGarage - 1971 521

[Charlie69 5,370]

This is my 520.  Yes that is a new old stock OEM speedometer and a black pastic backing plate from a 411 SS speedometer.

 

 

 

I have one more NOS OEM speedometer for a 520/521.

You can actually clock the odometer fairly easy.... I reset mine to zero after I rebuild my truck and engine.... I figured everything was new so I should start at zero with it's new life.....

Can you clock your wife? Maybe do a 'How To'  wright up?

Not really sure if that was ment to be funny or not....

 

I'll have to look for my pics from last year to do a write up on the odometer...

Always assume an attempt at being funny. If you can find a way to turn the mileage back on your wife I'd like to try this on mine.

That is how I usually do it.  I ran across the one in the picture above on ebay and it ended up costing me more than I originally paid for my 520!  The second one was a little cheaper.  Everything on my 520 is new or remanufactured so I thought I might as well through another handful of cash in the money pit.  It was a hobby now it is a hoard!!!  LOL

I'm a little slow..... that's much funnier and I get it now......

 

For some reason I just saw clock your wife, and I'm thinking hit my wife....

I was thinking good luck with that.....

 

Back to datsun stuff.....

No one is going to say hit your wife and mean it, if they did mean it they likely would not do well or last long here.

I assumed the way he meant it, but I also thought that maybe the wife would want the same result concerning Mike.

I could do with my clock turned back a bit. My wife doesn't need it, she's already 13 years younger than me.

It was more the comment Wayno made about hitting your Wife. I love my wife and still want to slap here silly sometimes. And I did not hit her yet. Hope I still last long here.
