Boy the factory was pretty optimistic about the little 318 with a 200 mph speedo. hahaha
I would say that’s a KPH speedometer. I had a 65 Valiant KPH speedometer that readvup to 180 KPH - about 110 MPH. If this car was an export model to Iceland, then it would be correct
its a 340 car though.
Oh
Well ill find out when i get it on plates and can drive it around. Just waiting on some new tires from summit :þ

That is most likely a Metric speedometer.

My 71 six cyl car was built in Hamtrack Michigan for Canada. speedo in MPH.
Yeah i think so. Its better for me to have a kph so i dont need to convert every time.

Metric, could be from a Mexican Superbee as well.
If it’s an export model, it won’t matter if it’s a slant, 318, 340, or big block. IIRC the fender tag might have the info if it is an export model.

I'm pretty sure the 73 Duster I bought new in Canada in '72 had KPH in large numbers and MPH in smaller numbers on the speedo. If mph, that bad boy is an over achiever.
Post a picture of the fender tag and we should be able to decode if the car was an export model.
Mph in canada until 1975. Then Mr Trudeau Sr.introduced the metric system.
Eather the fender tag is in a diffirannt place than normal or more likly it has been removed unfortunatly
I mean who does that!
