1968 Very weird issue - odometer ten-thousand's digit is spinning!

[admin]

OK, this is a new one for me, but my odometer is acting strange. Does anyone have an idea what's going on?

The far left digit (wheel) of the odometer is turning at about the same rate as the far right digit (wheel). The photos below were all taken within about 1/2 mile of each other (left photo 1st, right photo last)

My speedometer appears to read the speed correctly and the needle doesn't bounce or stick.

Very strange. I would guess it is either lubrication or gear malfunction. I have some speedometers for parts.

Marty, the numbers are all but gone on my tripometer. Some badly faded, some gone. Can you give advice as to the best way to repair it or who to send it out to. Thanks

There used to be a place in Rosco IL. That did instruments. Tachman might do them.
