WTB non working tach heads. Need straight face and needles

Looking for a few non working tachs. Just the heads to rebuild. Only using metal face and needles. Thanks

Not sure I am understanding what you are looking for? Are you doing repairs to OE tachs? I am looking for someone that can repair the mechanical/electrical function as well as do 8 to 6 conversions.

I have the cosmetic part of it covered. Are you fixing to sell restored tachs?

let me know,
Tom

Aren't there 8,000 Tachs available that look stock.

I would be interested in that!!! I don't see how it can be accurate by just changing the markings though. What's your plan?

yup, to busy with the 5 numbers on inner circle for me. going more after the speedo look. just the 0#s and a shorter hash mark for the 5s which won't be printed. both of the trks on doing now won't see 6500. one is an ls with air suspension so I'm running air gauge to main tank. can't get that lens with the 8k. I've found a guy to put modern units behind these faces that will read ls or points.
