Aftermarket factory style tach question

Do all the factory style tachs have greenish colored lines?. The rest of the gauges have white lines but the tachs look like they have green tinted lines . Did original factory tachs have white lines or green lines? Just curious that's all!

30 years can make the green fade to white. I dunno if white was factory or not.

it was green. I was staring at my cluster today, you can see the green tint to it still. 30 years of fade, but you can still tell.

Re: Aftermarket factory style tach question

I have a brand new tach head sitting in a box and it's definitely green tinted. I think they should be white like the rest of the gauges. I could always throw a decal overlay on it to fix that,lol. Byrd, are you out there?,lol.
