Speedometer Needle Hop

My recetly acquired 62 convertible speedo has needle hop . It jumps around more in cold weather . I removed the speedometer and pulled the cable which appears in good condition . It was clean and well oiled so I cleaned it again, oiled and reinstalled. I assume it could be either the gear at the transmission tail shaft or in the speedometer head. Idoubt if there is a kink in the cable housing as easily as the cable reinstalled . How hard is it to inspect the gear at the tranny ? Any recomendations as to a shop if I need to send the speedometr in . The odometer works well.

Tks,

Dallas
