X3- I am extremely doubtful this is a original NOS 140 MPH Speedo
I was very familiar with Harry and Cindy Woodrow who owned Camaro Headquarters as I lived in the area and dealt with them quite a bit back in the early 80's
They got into the reproduction market very early on, and the 140 MPH Speedo and Tach Face was one of their pieces from that time
The "NEW" Speedometers started life as a used piece and was then mated with a new silk screen face- same as the tachs
Later they had the backs reproduced and I believe should have a "CHQ" on them somewhere
I still have the release notice when these first came out, with all my other old catalogs
I probably still have a Tach face in my shop I can check for further clues

Notice the expiration of the credit card was from 1986 -so this piece should have been purchased in the 84-86 range
