Re: Testing all truck guys!
I have seen it done by Chevy with the tach in the right but did Chevy ever do the clock with the build? I have seen them out there but I thought they were added by fellows who are building them up like us. I thought from the factory they probated on the dash?

Re: Testing all truck guys!
Well I never worked for Chevrolet so I cant say for sure but from what I heard from guys in my area (Los Angeles, California) that the clock and tach were stock but just far and few between. When I sold my '64 I took it off and put on another speedometer so I could use it on my next truck.

Re: Testing all truck guys!
Is that cluster style for a certain year or did the cluster layout have options? (other than what was already mentioned) I thought mine was original but it doesn’t look like that one...

Re: Testing all truck guys!
here is one lilred66 did.. maybe a 65 chev car clock, can't remember what he said it was out of....
...and the air&vac. guages, as far as I know they were the only option for the left side of the cluster, the factory clock was an external unit mounted to the dash.

Re: Testing all truck guys!
Your clock looks like the early GMC clock. Ive seen these from about 1958 to 1966 in GMC only. Heres a few pictures of the ones Ive collected. The used one came from a 59 GMC NAPCO truck I have and the other is an NOS one for 1960 1961 GMC trucks but was the same I believe till 1966. Both of these are also dated on the back.Like others have said here from the factory or as an accessory Chevy used A dash top clock.Hope this helps. Jon

Re: Testing all truck guys!
Yeah definately not stock chevy.It makes sense on a GMC as they don't have the plastic bezel, Chevy didn't manufacture a bezel with a hole in it. Could have been something one of the mechanics at a certain dealership was doing at the time.
