    Got a chance to check an HQ speedo on the weekend from 2/72 ute - details were 2815729, 120 MPH, 12.71 and QA sticker. The clock space blank plate had a QK sticker if that helps with anything.

    Will get the details of the speedo in my ute when I get a chance. I'm guessing that the speedo in the 2/72 ute could have been the original based on the dates.

    Thanks T-dog for posting pictures of your HQ Kingy Sandman ute....

    http://www.mysandman.com.au/forums/b...blogtextid=132

    I did notice the dash had the 200kmh speedo and not the 220kmh gts one.

    I cant see if it has a console, if so what type.

    Thanks for that.
    If you happen to pull it out and it has a date on it could you let us know what it is please.
    The outer gauges seem to be the small font type as well (so the later ones) if you check the dates on those as well they should all be fairly close to each other.
    Cheers Paul.

    Thanks Paul,

    as I am yet to even see the ute I cant tell you, but it does gel with the 8/74 build date if what you say about the font is correct. I will now be interested in seeing what the dates are, regards Graham
