Great score, The tach can be rebuilt by Williams in Hot springs Arkansas, the dash itself can be rechromed , in the end mine looks like this......

I'm going to send one of the tachs out to them. How did yours work out? I got this bad boy waiting for them.

That was my first thought since I'm going to use the bat o meter. I'm now thinking of mounting this somewhere. What do you guys think?

I figured I'd show my other acquisitions from the last few meets. This should show that you can still find great deals out there.

**pdxhall** · 10-03-2011, 09:58 PM

Did you get the transmitter with the tach?

what auto swap did u get em at

kieth · 10-04-2011, 10:09 AM

Jomama the tach worked great, my Batometer was NOS we just hooked it up and it worked. Cannot say as much for my Gauge Cluster, The old board was not completing the circuit for all instruments so we had to completely wire around the board, works really well, did not take pictures of the fix cause it was a jumble of wires but it probably works better that it ever did originally. I have to pull it out in a few days to replace the fuel gauge and the water temp gauge, will shoot some pictures if the wiring nightmare then. Kieth

what did the conversion run you? I always wondered if it would be better to run dedicated wires instead of the circuit board thing. Please post them when you can.

Very Nice Score! That Air Pressure Gauge would be great in a bagged truck to show tank pressure. That clock is sweet also, it would look great in a cup.
