I have a 59 dodge. From zero to 30 there is a green bar, then from 30 to 50 its orange, Over 55 the whole bar turns red. These colors are on a rolling pin behind the speedometer.
I can see where you could access this because it is normal to service and lube this. And while your back there, draw things on the bar that would show up once your reach a certain speed.

Green LED’s really make it pop. The factory lighting left a lot to be desired.

IIRC, the 57 and 8 was red all the way across. At least my 57 is.
'58 (I think?) This was in a local supermarket parking lot.

Four door hardtops are rare. But you can say that about all of them So true on the 4-door hardtops as I went looking for something to ID the year of the car I posted the photos of and found 99% of them as 2-door models in both '58 and '59 think that was the year of this '57 model.
