    There are very few speedometers that I know of that would have a 7 inch diameter. That being said, are you looking for something new or a period correct speedometer?

    I don't think there is room in a '34 dash for a 7" speedo...there's barely room for the standard 3-3/8" hole, since even that is larger than the stock speedo hole. Did you change dashboards or do some radical surgery? If so, we'd like to see it.

    51-52 Studebaker speedometer was close to 6 inch the only other that would come close to 7 inch was early Dodge.
