Correct Speedo and Tach gauges for a 1967 Atlas

Unless NV changed the speedo for 1968 while Commando production was ramped up, the speedo they (and AMC) fitted to all 750's from 1964 onwards was SSM3001/00A, later /00B (120 mph) or SSM3001/01A, later /01B (190 kph).
For the 500SS and 650SS, SSM 3002/00 (120 mph) or SSM 3002/01 (190 kph) was fitted prior to 1966. SSM3002 was designed for fitment in the headlamp bucket. Later years had the same mounting and version as the 750's. Neither of the speedos have a trip meter, but this could be supplied on request. I believe the version suffix changed for the trip meter version, but I haven't detected the code.

All speedometers feature 1600 cable revs per mile. The appropriate speedo gearbox has a 2:1 ratio.

If one of these speedo clocks is in need of an overhaul, a trip meter kan be furnished.

Hi all,
When I purchased my 1967 Atlas project, it came with a Smiths speedo that runs up to 120 MPH and the tach runs up to 8000 rpm. Both have a gray circle with white stripes in the middle. I was going to restore both but it occurred to me that they might not be correct. So before I do, I thought I would check. Anybody know what is correct?

FYI; These people are Smiths. They bought the inventory. Informational web site. Great to work with and reasonable prices with fair trade-ins.
