Speedo fault

Morning all,
had a clicking yesterday behind the dash on 72 3500s. Today the speedo stopped working so guess it’s one and the same. Having never taken a p6 dash apart is this an easy fix? Parts available? Even better anyone near my end of the world in Essex could fix it.? Thanks all.
 
Or the cable has come loose from the right-angle drive behind the speedo, if it has one. Or the drive has broken/come loose itself. I'm not sure if the round speedo has such a drive, but the strip speedo does.
 
had clicking behind my dash and speedo flickering. series 2 '74. V8 changed cable reduced noise and no longer surging needle! played with routing of cable and noise now gone! has both ends fitted with 90 degree angle drives. checked both and happy with them so refitted. suggest your inner cable or angle drive has failed. fiddly job but not beyond most competent home mechanics. allow couple of hours and a few choice words.
 
def brave . I am putting off changing my choke cable as it freezing in my garage! still as not using car until possibly April ?when vaccinations may be around? plenty of time I guess.
