Someone did a nice job there i have a Sun Tach that looks identical that mounts on the steering column,they did a nice job putting it in there.

Nice job...but he's selling it as a factory tach dash.

i really ahte to see these kind of things, some unknowing guy out there will buy it thinking it factory. there should be a way to report this kind of stuff..

im sure the guy bought the dash for 20 buck, then put a 30 buck tach in it. knowing that tach dashes go for well over 100 bucks.
that dash is prob worth 60 - 80 top.

Maybe he doesn't know it's not factory. Did anyone email him and let him know?

Project1970 · 11-21-2002, 01:24 AM

Good news...I emailed him...it turns out he honestly thought it was an original tach. Pointed him to a pic of a real one.
