    Hello. There were no Canadian cars with kph until the mid 70s. I don`t know about European ones but I would bet no. Here in Canada when the speed signs went to metric(kph) and you had an older car in mph you could buy small round stickers that you placed on the speedometer in several places to convert. Most people now who have been driving for some time know the approximate speeds.

    Is a 1968 model year speedo different from the '67 ?
    I know about this '68 Skylark that was used as a parts vehicle.

    One thing for sure is that the 67 has a black background and the 68 is silver.

    I dont think it can be silk screened because it has the raised numbers,the 68 dash is silver so it cannot be used but thanks guys.

    I will contact the owner of the '68 and check if the speedo is in KM's or Miles.
    (could have been an imported car from North America)
