Where to buy a speedo needle

Apparenlty I did not word my last post correctly and for that I apologize.

I need a speedo needle for my 66 GMC and I was hoping that someone here knew of someone that either has reproductions or something that will work as a replacement.

I am not asking for someone to sell me theirs, I am simply asking for some help thinking that someone on here has replaced theirs at one time. I did a google search and found some for Chevy, not GMC.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Tony

Re: Where to buy a speedo needle

You might try some of the speedometer restoration shops. One of them may have spare parts available. Here are a few, there are many others on a Google search. The next best option would be keep an eye out for a used speedometer or cluster on eBay or in regional junk yards.

You might also try Tony Smith. He specializes in 4-5-6 Chevys, but does have some GMC stuff:
