Re: pics of your rpm guage setups...custom or stock looking

I call my RPM gauge a tach . Right now, in my K2500 I'm running a restored factory tach dash and replated bezel done by Cheyenne Superman in '89. This is the second truck it's been in. I thought I had a picture, but don't seem to

And just what is that you did there, sir? Curious minds would like to know. Very nice.

That's the set-up I have in moth balls for my K2500, along with matching woodgrain panels done very nicely that I got from Jerry Brown.

I like that. I have tach dashes and have been all about them since I found out they existed. But for my '67 GMC SWB retro hot truck I've decided to do this same thing. This is what everyone did in the day. I saw very few vehicles with tach dashes back then, but everyone had to have a tach. I'm talking Chevelles to trucks. I'm actually thinking to use a no gauge cluster and add the 3-gauge set-up under the dash as well

Good to know Bosch makes these. I'll be checking into one once I'm ready
