When the Odometer stops working is my Volvo dead?

The odometer on my "87 245 stopped working at 273,995. I feel like unless I get this fixed, all the bragging rights about how far the car has gone are lost- to me and any future owner. Having a Volvo is all about these miles. How much of a pain is it to fix this? Oh, and the trip gauge is shot ...

Nevertheless, the handle was clever. I cant' believe I'm the first one to use it here. The fan is blowing better now. I just...

1987 Noisy Blower motor
