Wow.  You were on eBay faster than I was.  I was trying to check it on my phone during dinner.  Never easy.  


The guy at the speedometer shop was good enough to send me pictures.  I thinkI can stick it back together.  Near as I can tell, the board is generally intact, but the fittings on the connectors self-disassembled.  My thought at the moment is to have them go ahead and work up the speedometer/odometer unit.  I'm assuming here that that subunit is fairly easily swapped out between clusters.  That way I'll have aknown good odometer at least.  Problem with 30 year old plastic parts is that they all break about the same time, albeit a little sooner here in the Texas heat.  If the board is kaput, I'll have to go ahead and replace the cluster, again assuming I can put my odometer/speedometer in it.  


I appreciate all the ideas and resources.  I was kind of sick last night and was dead asleep when the shop called this morning so my confused response was to proceed straight to panic.  Now that I know I have options, I can skip to the next step, depression at all the money and effort I'm in for.  But, it's a step ahead :)
