1946 Speedometer issue
 

Recently purchased a 1946 Ford Super Deluxe convertible restomod. Has a 350 Chevy engine with a TH3 Chevy transmission. Trying to hook up to the original Ford speedometer. Any ideas on how to do this - adapter, etc?

The speedometer end of the cable will need a male threaded end then whatever the transmission takes on that end.

As Ken/Alabama said, you will need to have a speedo cable made to adapt to the Bowtie automatic. Check with transmission shops or speedometer repair shops in your area or on the web.

check with Lokar. they usually have complete cables that have stock Ford speedo ends (11/16" male I believe) and correct end for your trans.

Get a hold of Rusty at Speedometer Service in Colorado Springs. He made a cable for the AOD in my '54 Ranch Wagon. Great price, good quality, and fast turn around. He also sold me a NOS speedo head for the Ranch Wagon. Good guy to deal with. Knows his stuff.
