MO WTB: Nice (Original) Tach Lense (No Vac/Air Lenses) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72BlckButy · 10-23-2010, 10:39 PM

I'm looking for a super nice original tach lense, preferrably with nice green script, all the markings, and no scratches/chips.

I currently have one that will fit the bill (minus a chip) but looking to see if anyone has anything nicer that's available. I'm considering purchasing a repop lense, but wanted to see if anyone had one available.

Please post pics, price and shipping quotes to 65043.

Thanks in advance!
Nate

I have one that is an original GM, no chips or scratches, just a bit dusty. Could use a cleaning. Take $25 plus shipping. No pics right now, headed out of town early this AM. Can post pics Monday

Thanks guys!

Tom I'm hoping to find a nice original for less money but the future will only tell; and that's a good price on it.

I'm looking for one that is super nice, so post a few pics and we'll see what can be worked out.

Was able to get a couple pics of the tach lens today. Not show quality but neither is the $$, LOL. Did find one small, hairline crack on the back side above the battery portion. DOES NOT extend thru to the front and no other damage. Can not be seen until you turn it over. Needs a clean and polish as has some smudges on the face. No missing or smudged lettering.

Ironhorse... thanks for getting me a pic of the lense, but I think I'm going to pass on it. If the one I have didn't have a nick on the front of the lense I wouldn't be trying to locate one because it is near perfect.

Thanks again!

Nate, No problem. Hope you find what you are looking for. The "thrill of the hunt" is all part of it ! Good luck with your search.
