1966 Jetstar 88

Bought this car a little over 3 years ago for my daughter to drive. Now, it spends most of it's time in a college parking lot, about 120 miles from it's true home.
It was in good shape, in general. But, as with all older cars, repairs are needed often. So far, I've replaced the left wheel hub, rebuilt the Holley 4 barrel, rebuilt the transmission, replaced the turn signal cam.... It's back home from college - for more repairs. Need to replace front brake shoes, valve cover gasket, and some grease certs. Really need to replace the vinyl top. I also need to repair the speedometer. All I need is a left front wheel hub with the speedometer attachment (cable runs through the center of wheel).
Main problem is finding parts - average search is usually about a month. Any help on where to find parts would help greatly.

Welcome to CO David. Oldsmobile used that method for speedometer a number of years so you should be able to acquire what you need. Good luck in your search.
