Custom Tach Bracket for 63

What kind of interest is there for a tach bracket for the 63 cluster? I havent determined cost really because I've only made one prototype. I dont know if my bracket will fit 60-62 because I don't have enough info on those clusters. If I have enough interest, i will make them.

Re: Custom Tach Bracket for 63

I think that is a pretty cool idea no matter what some people on FB post. If I was building an instrument cluster today for my '63, I would go with your tach and bracket solution. Great job!

Thanks. Yeah not surprised at the one dude on his idea of what it should cost...he obviously doesnt understand machining very well. No worries, thanks for the compliment!

Re: Custom Tach Bracket for 63

This is the cluster that is needed for installing the Bosch Retro Tach. I am not familiar enough of the 60-63 years cluster to know what year this is.
