i was even worse takin this one, i was shiftin the rachet shifter with my right hand, and steering and taking the pic with my left hand. it sure does sound good though, at 5500 rpm. i was still in first gear at 65 mph and 5500 rpm just about to shift :D:

Why does your coolant say less than 100º? ;D :D Damn dude, that's a TINY tach. How can you see that shiz!?

Always good to have a camera handy. I bought one the other day to take a pic of a '55 Chevy with side stacks! I remember we had a discussion about that along time ago. Maybe it was on the other site?

That truck does look sweet though, love the stepsides. :)

the same reason my shift indicator says i'm between P and R. they aren't hooked up. i have an after market temp guage because the hole tapped for the temp sending unit in my iron ealges won't work with a factory sending unit and the B&M shifter has its own indicator on it so the shif indicator dosen't work either:D as for the tach, i'm waiting until i can afford all the auto meters to recess in the dash, to me a huge 12 inch monster tach on the dash or steering column just looks "tacky" no pun intended:D

I like that tach its about the size im looking for to put in my truck.So what did the person driving do when you where taking the pics.

I'm with you there....
I think they do look a "out of place".

I would have liked to have seen you take a pic of his dash while driving!!!!! your a better driver than I am

What rear end gears do you have? The picture shows 65 MPH, 5500RPM in REVERSE! Can you back up a trailer that fast? :confused:

2.73's. and the shift indicator dosen't work. i have a floor mounted rachet shifter, i was still in first gear in the pic.:)

I'm with you on that man. You've seen my tach right?

im with you guys, 5" tachs look like crap when mounted on the dash. however, i just installed one in my '86 and ran the wires down through a hole where the center speaker holes were broken out. gotta have something to cover that hole... :D

Here is the tach in my 87 burb. :D Nice and small. :)

Good looking truck! I like the flames. I know how hard it is to take pictures while driving. I always keep my camera handy and have taken a couple. No wrecks yet! :)

I have been seeing alot of 73-87's in my neighborhood. I missed out on alot of great pictures, because I didnt have my camera. But there are a few that live in the neighborhood that I never seen before. They are garaged. One is real sweet. Next time I see it outside Im gonna stop and talk with him. I hope he speaks english :)

I have a 2.5-3" tach in my corner of my dash...doesent hinder view at all and doesnt look out of place like the monster tach's. ;)
I will post a pic tonight

Pics??????? Hehe....... :D

As long as we want show off our tachs.
:D
