Speedometer conversion to KMH

[t120r]

Does anyone make an overlay or even a new faceplate to read KMH? In Canada that will sure help.

Or find a late '77 Canadian speedometer.

I know of several 67' that went to South America, all had metric speedometers, some have reappeared in the US.

@Kwal, that metric speedometer is pretty cool, is that stock or did you have that done up? Funny the gauge cluster isn't totally metric though - the temp and oil pressure are still in imperial.

I remember when the conversion happened, there were stickers that you could get to put the km/h numbers over the mph. I think the motor vehicle branch or some gov't agency gave them out.

For myself, I just go with 30=50 and 50=80. My speedo is off anyway, due to the 35's, so its a best guess even at that.

60mph is 100 kph, so:

30mph is 50kph

15mph is 25kph

ish.

Or 120 is 200 kph, good luck getting there.

I just flow with traffic or run an app on my phone. My speedo jumps 10 mph while cruising the highway at 70mph... Im sure a refresh of my speedo is probably something I should look into though

I know all about the conversion, I just wanted a KMH speedometer is all.

The speedo is just a spinning magnet, I doubt you can do anything to stop the bouncy needle.

Not sure ford ever made a dual speedo in that era
