Don't know what the speedo is from. Has a 2nd gen camaro tach and a 73-87 truck fuel gauge

Looks like a third gen Z28 speedo and tach.

It is a 2nd gen camaro.3rd gen had kmh and mph markings.

The fuel guage is from a 73-87 GM truck I believe... the speedo kind of looks like the one in my '69 Chevelle. Probably a Camaro speedo though...

This one is similar. It is in my blazer. I like the 130 mph speedo.

A couple of years ago I was messing around with my 1971 Monte Carlo cluster. The speedo drops right in. The fuel gauge could be used to replace the truck fuel gauge. The clock could be made to fit in the tach spot.

You can use plastic polish to remove the lettering from the speedo hole in the truck if you want to go with the Monte speedo.

The Monte speedo in the pictures is the same from 70-72. It is also the same in 70-72 Chevelle models with upgraded dash options. A lot of guys use Monte dashes to make their sweep Chevelle dash (usually non-SS) look like a SS dash.

The first pictrue is the Monte Cluster.
2nd is the Monte Speedo in the truck cluster.
The 3rd is what I finally made and installed in my truck. (No Monte speedo, mid 80's quartz truck clock, aftermarket tach.)
