Jose,
You can buy it in Germany from Limora (www.limora.com) The part number is 492202 for positiv earth. It is from Sprite, but it fits to TD and has a connection for the speedometer. The price until end of Jan. is 560 Euros.

I bought one last year. Works perfekt.

The look alike conversions are not that uncommon. Powermaster sells them to old Chevy and Ford restro guys and hotrodders. The price for these range from $400 to $600 for a Chevy or Ford, I would expect to pay at least $600 or more for one set up with a rear tach cable attachment. Racemettle doesn't display a price, but I would dig very deep in the pockets if you want one for a T series. PJ
