                                                have a single instrument
                                                dashboard retainer and
                                                round nut to hold my
                                                speedo in place?  I
                                                recently took out both
                                                the speedo and the tach
                                                for rebuilding from my
                                                69 GT and found someone
                                                had tried to remove the
                                                speedo before. 
                                                Apparently they got one
                                                side off, but could not
                                                reach the other and must
                                                have left it off for
                                                some reason.  Now it is
                                                long gone and I have
                                                only one side to hold it
                                                in place.  You can see
                                                the doohicky I am
                                                referring to in this
