Airspeed Markings

Hello I have bought a Wheeler express CT and it has no airspeed instrument markings on the airspeed gauge.
It has a IO 360 200 HP and a Hartzel CSP.

Can anyone please post a pic of their airspeed gauge so i can see where to mark mine.

Re: nose gear suspension

That is how mine is without any suspension at all.
I was thinking maybe a bike shock would work in this position?
