Default Re: 1969 camaro 140 mph speedometer question

Growing up in Canada nothing was Metric here until the mid 70's and I believe the dual Kph/Mile Speedo heads first showed up on GM products in '74 w/ the 1975 model year cars?.
Although Canada officially adopted the Metric system a few years earlier, Metric was confusingly jammed down our throats at school starting about 1973 and its use implemented across the land over the next few years..
The only cool thing at the time was seeing our new road signs like Speed Limit 100!.
