Rule 3. don't be dishonest and screw not only the dealer but perhaps the next poor guy that buys that car from the dealer. Rule 4. what comes around goes around. Most vehicles from the '20's through the early '80's had a speedometers with a drag cup movement. To set the odometer back take the drum apart, set whatever mileage you want and put it back together. It is kinda like a rube cube, everything has to match but you can get any mileage you want with some patience. The problem is that the reels are plastic and any out of synch wear or the slightest wrong contact and the digits won't read out in a perfect line across after it has been installed for about 1000 miles, some digits will be higher or lower than others. Nope, I don't make a practice of turning back odometers or hour meters, just have repaired many. I can spot a rollback in an instant and so can any instument repair person. Joe
