Re: 1966 chevy truck engine swap to LS1

I really like the clock it looks great, in post 24 you said the clock came from a 73 volvo and then in post 63 you said it came from a 80's model, I really want to find one of these do you know for sure which one it came out of, and also what is the tach out of.

Thanks for any info you could pass along.

I could do some more research on this year but i did this conversion over 10 years ago. I believe it was from 73 to 80 Volvo wagon. I went to the wrecker and pulled about 5 of them out. I will have to do some further checking, and let you know.

Ok I found out what I did. I used the face of a non quartz clock from a 1960-70's 140-240 Volvo clock. I put the face on a 1986-1993 factory quartz Volvo 240 clock cluster. I looked eBay right now there are two (2) that I saw on there. Check these item out #281163234650 #290974871422
