Message-ID: <711e3682a1b84500a3922e11d4ae1a48@ranteer.com>

I have a car with a non original engine and British Frod 5 speed transmission conversion.

The speedo cable does not quite fit correctly.  A drill and a standard cable turns it.

Does anyone know of a company who works on/makes custom speedo cables?

Maybe this company?  I have no experience with them but they seem to
provide the service you are looking for:

Good luck!

Heard from the broadcast booth at the Nottingham Forest v Aston Villa
football match:

======

Can't be many occasions that you've got two Morgans on the pitch.

   Sounds like a vintage car festival doesn't it?

Goodwood.

   Disappointed we've not got a Stag.

Maybe he should have said Aston Martin.

So I am finally getting around to sending out a thank you to someone who 
may or may not be on this list:  Mike Kowaslki.

He sent in a generous contribution, and also asked if he could advertise 
some parts for sale,  Yes, listing parts for sale is mot a problem on 
these lists.  Have at it!
