Re: Motion installed tack
The reason I posted these particular tachs is because I think they would all be available in 68.

Re: Motion installed tack
Joe,
Do you think the Sun Super Tach with the white needle is the first incarnation? Maybe '68?  Verne

Re: Motion installed tack
I believe so, but to be perfectly honest, I'm not 100% positive... most of the catalogs and ads are black and white... I guess I could check the backsides for date codes if i was ambitious enough... maybe I'll do that when I start digging stuff out to pack for Collinsville.

Re: Motion installed tack
Joe,
I bought a new Super Tach head with a white needle and it was stamped 68. The one I bought for my car in 69 (stamped 69) has the red/orange needle. I'm not sure if the Super Tach was out earlier than '68  Verne

I'll have to look at mine but I think the SST90 has a white needle, orange shift indicator and a green stripe vs. the blue stripe like the one on the far right in Joe's picture.

Re: Motion installed tack
Joe,
Could you possibly help identify this gauge panel I have? It's aluminum and doesn't have a manufacturer's name on it that I can find. I've looked through a number of old speed catalogs and can't find one like it. Thanks, Verne

Maybe an Eelco? [/ QUOTE ] That was my first thought too since I sold an Eelco a while back that looked just like that one, including the two lights that protrude out the top. It was cast, probably pot metal, but Eelco was cast into the back of the panel. May be a later version or a copy.
