WTB Looking for a Tin for a tach guage cluster.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a Black tin for a tach cluster. I got a cluster, but some one cut up the tin inside to install a guage in the bottom whole.

Thanks....

Re: WTB Looking for a Tin for a tach guage cluster.

I might buy your old one if it's useable just with the extra hole cutout...thinking of adding a clock or air pressure gauge....

Re: WTB Looking for a Tin for a tach guage cluster.

How did you cut out that clock hole with the factory rolled lip look. ???

Re: WTB Looking for a Tin for a tach guage cluster.

I have made the tach holes before with the lip by marking the hole, cutting it out, dremeling the edges, and using a non-scarring mallet over a large pipe. I was going to do the exact same idea as 70shortfleet for a converted clock I have. Trevor

If you cannot find a used one, I know GMC Pauls sells the inner and outer tin in a set for $44.95.

Re: WTB Looking for a Tin for a tach guage cluster.
