Well, mines not in a Roadster but in my 69 340 Cuda. Coming home from a
hillclimb in Binghamton, NY 90 miles from work and an hour to get there, I
passed
a car as I hit third at around 100. Then I saw light come on a side road so
did the hand brake and down shift thing, Took the Cop over a mile to get behind
me and when he came up to the window he asked how fast i was going back there,
I then knew he did not have a clock on me so said 65 (In a 55) but was not
sure as Speedo was broken and dash lights did not work. When he look in to see
the dash lights saw my tach and said I should know from that (smart guy) then
I told him it was not wired in as it caused a high speed miss and I just ran a
Hillclimb (still had the numbers on doors). Got off with a fix it ticket and
told to slow down.
Still made it to work on time GGGGG.
One of many in that car.
