No. KM = MI / .62

In other words, 100km would be 62 mph

No, can't be. 100 mph = 160 kph and 60 mph = 96 kph

Maybe 1 gauge is for the driver and the sideways one is for the passenger driving for the passed out drunk driver! :lol: :lol: :lol:

a PO custom job maybe?

I dont know...... ive never seen this before. All of the rest of the cluster is stock. It had a 283 in it and a manual tranny that has that 2 finger left lever on it to keep going thru the gears. C50 remember

I wouldn't hurry to run out and get it. Someone just swapped in a 70's Chevy van/motorhome speedometer into a stock cluster

It still begs the question why there are two rows of digits and why don't they line up?

It's because the factory truck speedo had the numbering screened onto the plastic lens and the van speedo has the numbers screened on the face of the gauge itself.

Moreover the mechanism that drives the needle is intended for one of the faces and not the other. There's no "standard" for degrees per mph or anything, so its a crapshoot as to what one mechanism's needle will do with a different mechanism's face plate.
