I have found a local company that calibrates speedometers, so no problem there.
I have not checked it against a GPS yet, but reset my trip counter and had a drive.
At the end of my trip the counter said 88 miles. (I guess it is in miles, since the speedometer says 85 mph) Measured the driven distance in google maps, and it said 87 kilometers.
That would be way off. The trip counter should have said around 55 miles. On the other hand, I dont mind the speedo measuring in "kilometers" in stead of miles...

Daytime pictures are with angle drive from certain European supplier, one form the evening are with angle drive from Smiths Instruments dated November 1985.
Original angle drive has following ratio, wheel/cable 16/18, I came across following other ratios, 7/8 which is almost correct, 1/1 which gives about 12% inaccuracy and most outrages 8/7 which presents very good chance for a big ticket.
