Not much any one can do now? Get a shovel and bury it out back.
Seriously though sorry to hear it. May have just been an old speedo. Or a bad connection.
Probably best to get a new system? I would look into a brushless system like the new XBR. Heres a couple of links. These are very affordable.

Sounds like you may have hooked the batt up backwards.You will smoke the speed control in a second when you do this.Been there .....done that
