Seems like if you shifted into neutral at speed, the cruise would kick off but the speedo would keep working, so I think the mechanical problem is between the speedo drive gear on the tailshaft and the wheels. Yup, this is a cunundrum! On an 87, how is the speedo driven? I was going to suggest the torque converter to flywheel bolts were gone and the engine is no longer driving the transmission. Now it may be that one of the driveshaft flex couplings has become uncoupled. But then wouldn't the engine and trans drive the speedo, even if the car didn't move? Geeez!
