Dear all,
I’m on a search for an original Speedometer Cable for a Post war 2 litre car.
I’m looking for the original steel armoured type which I believe had brass
fixtures at the ends.
If anybody has one for sale or would know about anybody that might have
one for sale I would be most grateful to know.
I can be reached on jonas (at) jonaslindvall dot com
Or +46709266070
Many thanks in advance for any help.
Kind regards
Jonas

Hello,
for my prewar AC I had one made by a specialist in Germany - he can do almost anything either by drawing or sample and pricing is very reasonable: https://www.taflexa.de Might be worth to contact them.
Good luck and kind regards,
Jurgen

Dear Jürgen,
Thanks for the tip, I will definitely contact them. Silly question but do you know
if they speak English?
I guess I’ll find out sooner or later!
Regardless I appreciate the info and that you took time to post.
Kind regards
Jonas

Good morning all,
A friend needs a speedometer cable for his 16/80.
Are these a standard length? I was only given the speedometer side of the broken cable and the rest is apparently still on the gearbox.
Thanks in advance.

Speedograph Richfield Nottingham should be able to supply a replacement cable but as it is a PVT they do not stock them, they do stock post war AC car types, you will need to send the old one so they know the type & terminations required.

Thank you Robin. They rebuilt the tacho of my Ace a few years ago. Very pleased with their work.
I will check with my friend if he can give me the rest of the cable.
