    Which parts did you break and need?

    Did the cable come loose behind the Atari or at the wheel connection? Cable rusty? Pinched? Damaged?

    If you really need just speedometer I could dig out an untested used one from a crack Atari I acquired.

    Let us know.

    i riped out the trip dial when i pushed it into a pole (long story) im not sure exactly what broke but the needle went half the correct speed for a day then randomly spiked past 85 and slammed back to 0 broke its needle and free spun for another 5 minutes and hasnt done anything since

    im not very good at tearing those apart so i figured id grab a new set spin in the correct mileage when i put in new bulbs and call it a day

    if anyone even has a working one with a banged up case ill take it my case is fine and i could swap it around

    I will try to find my banged up Atari. The speedo was OK I think...

    It's in shed or storage. I need to dig through both this weekend. :p

    just give him a little time, he's been pretty pretty busy, but when he comes through, he will take care of you no doubt

    I found my banged up Atari - The gauges appear to be fine (just red faded away).

    Do you want just the gauges or the whole Atari? (Note the computer screen component looks VERY faded).

    Just gauges would probably fit in a $5 USPS box, the Atari MAYBE the $11 box.

    Pics if you want them, and we can figure out a price depending on how many parts you really want.
