    I was looking around on the internet and I came across a vendor selling N.O.S. Spartan turn signals and correct replacement speedometer. I wasn't really to the point where I needed these, but I figured I better get them. You never know what you might find. The turn signal still even had the paper tags hanging on it. I do have a question though. The turn signal was missing some of the parts. Does anyone have a link to what the correct steering column clamps look like?

    Here is a pic of the turnsignal

    The other clamp half is a mirror image of the one already on the unit you have. The ones you have should have threaded holes, I use 2 allen heads to clamp mine. I have no idea where you would find one by itself. Nice looking parts though.

    It was $175. It's about $60 over what the replacements are, but then again, the replacements are not like the original, so I guess you pay for what you get. The guy said he has more of them

    Yea......that's where it came from. After I talked to him, he raised it to those prices.
