Default Re: Gauges

Dave & Paul, I am not saying that they are year specific, but when did Sun stop making the greenline gauges. Well I have talked to Tim Lopata and this is what he said:

The greenline tach was last produced in 1967 and then they came out with a blueline tach that was green backlit that used the monitor box. Then in early 68 they came out with the blueline transistorized tach. The greenline gauges were still available but once inventory was depleted only the new blueline gauges were available. By 1970 there should not have been any greenlines left.

As another side note, SW had a buy back program for obsolete gauges. They would buy them back every two years to update a speedshops inventory with the current stuff. Not sure if Sun did the same thing.


The greenlines compliment any 70 and earlier Camaro or Chevelle better as the factory gauges light up green at night. The 69 Camaro really looks great at night with the green lights...............RatPack..........
