looking for a tach

Hey guys, I'm looking to add a column-mounted tach to my truck. It definitely has to be black-face, are there any that are the same style as the dash gauges? I'd like it to match if possible.

Thanks!

Re: looking for a tach

I did this one for my truck. It comes chrome with a black mounting base from Sunpro, its there NEW retro line tachometer SST802R. If you are interested in the stars and stripe look let me know and I can help you out.

Re: looking for a tach

Here's mine. Auto Gage 2306. It's a 6000 rpm tach. All I need. I think it's funny seeing those huge 10,000 rpm tachs on pretty much stock motors.
Below it, on the left is the gauge for my wideband O2 sensor.

On here they have three Retro Tach's


I am looking for a vintage style tach for my 68 Lwb.

I think i might go with the Fz88r. Not sure which one is year correct, but they both look great !

They also come with two brackets, one for the dash or collum mount.

Re: looking for a tach

i've got the cp7901 on my column - it looks old school and they're pretty cheap too. Really not the best pic but all I could find at the moment...
