It's an aftermarket modification. It's not quite real, although I realize you're saying it's not a Photoshop mock-up. These show up once in a while, maybe from police cars or something. The font looks like to me Letraset rub-on Helvetica, very different from the Futura Demi-Bold clone the factory used; compare it to the tach.

No its on ebay, the guy says its from an 88LE 1, he's local so I went to take a look, looks real to me.

I seen it on ebay too, I think there were a very few that came with it.

------------------
1992 Camaro Z-28 custom 25th anniversary, 5.7 TPI auto, 2.73 posi, t-tops, arctic white with 92' medium mettalic gray stripes with black border stripe.

1967 Pontiac Catalina 2 door fastback, 400 v-8, auto, cameo white, dark red interior

1987 Olds Cutlass, 350 Rocket, auto, dark gray/light gray interior

There were indeed very few that came with it... zero.

It's not factory. One of the speedo services made it. Again, look at the font. It's not factory.

That might even be the same individual gauge cluster that shows up on e-bay from time to time, looking for the next greater fool that thinks he's getting something really special. I believe that very same pic has even been posted here before.

Tim Burgess' friend has this exact same speedo in his 1986 IROC-Z.

Although I removed the link to the pic, I still have it. It is a closeup and it is identical to the speedo shown above. This rules out the idea that it is custom made.

I still have no idea which Camaros got this speedo. I do know that the '86 IROC-Z was in Europe at one time... Maybe this speedo was used on Camaros destined for Europe?

1987 "20th Anniversary Commemorative Edition" Z28 Convertible -- Super Chevy Show Class Winner, 1998.

O'Reilly Chevrolet down in Tucson was selling them over the counter in the parts department back in the mid 80's. Back then the factory speedo was limited to 85 mph (in the US)due to federal law. This didn't stop the aftermarket from making replacments. I almost purchased one of them when my car was almost new, but they were very expensive and I decided to pass. I saw the box it came in, and while I don't remember the brand, I do remember that it was aftermarket, and not an AC Delco part. I later installed a factory 145 instead.
