Haven't used these guys but I am sure they can help.

Ringwood Speedometer Service, not too far from you.

Jaycar have an electronic speedo corrector for about $60 in kit form. Worked well on my old Rodeo. I had a switch to go from standard to the corrected setting.

those speedo correction units like marks adapters are for electronic speedos. early 80s are cable driven, so make sure yours is an electric one before buying!

Try Lionel Otto Instruments.

Or get your printer onto the job and glue a new face on :)
