Re: KPH speedo's
In Canada we didn't even know what the metric system was until about 1975.It began with weather temperatures (farenheit/celcius)in the mid 70's then road signs and speed limits/speedos in 1977 and so on in a progressive way over several years.I still don't know what a kilopascal(instead of lbs/sq in.) is but some day I'll get there.Anyway even though ALL speedo's in 69 were MPH some companies made overlay decals you could install in your dash.Some were crude others were quite detailed.I once bought a tach/gauge/speedminder set up for a 1972 chev P/U with KPH and thought this is neat, but when I took it apart I discovered it was just a decal(and a very convincing one)
