Here are some interesting photos of a 1964 Spyder dash with a 200mph
speedometer - taken at this year's Vair Fair.  The present owner acquired
the car this way and does not know the history behind it.

Every Spyder speedometer I've had in my hand was a 120 mph unit. Of course
when loose, it is hard to tell years except the hand color.

Hi Kent,
Per the '63 and '64 Chevrolet Finger-Tip Facts, 63 and 64 Spyder speedos
were both 120mph units. So were the '62s, per Chevy literature.

Hi,



Can someone please verify that the max MPH shown on a Spyder speedometer is
higher in '64 than other years? And what is the max for each year?
