So after it hits 160mph it starts slowing back down to 81mph then crawls to 2mph?

You sure it doesn't gauge accurate speed?

Wrong......It's silk screened and re-geared. Anything North Hollywood Speedometer does is perfect. You may not like it, but that thing will do exactly what's it's supposed to do. It's a real 200mph speedometer.

53 Oval's right. It's genuine and will clock to 200mph, but it isn't from one of the new Herbies. This one is just a knock off of it being made by them.

No one bid on it, but that doesn't mean someone from the samba didn't end up with it.

they have had no bids on the last few items offered.
perhaps they see it as free advertising. |
