Thank you for the tip, I think the speedo cable conversion idea is genius - I didn't even think of that. I'll "try" and upload a picture of the truck today.

 

Thanks Moe Craig - got the photo on. This is what it looks like now - arrives at my place Monday - hopefully - it's already 2 weeks late? I have some big plans for it - going to drive it around for a while first and then see how things go. Can't wait.

 

Hi and welcome to the site. Simply multiply k.p.h. by .6 and this will give you approx. m.p.h. 100 k.p.h. x .6 = 60.0 m.p.h. Actually 62 m.p.h.- 50 k.p.h. x .6 = 30.0 m.p.h. I have driven trucks in Canada that were in m.p.h. and ones in the U.S. that were in k.p.h. and was always used this .6 conversion to get by, simple enough to do in your head while driving.
Bye and good luck.
