Where can I get a factory tach working properly
I have a 67 truck with a factory guage set in it that reads way to high and the needle sticks everytime. Where can I get it repaired. I was going to use a set of Classic Instruments gauges but my wife loves the stock look. Any help is appreciated!

Sorry, I forgot to mention it has a Chevy HEI distributor in it and a 383 smallblock.

Re: Where can I get a factory tach working properly
I had a el camino tach repaired by Bobs Speedometer in MI. with good results. Give them a call. Might be cheaper to buy a new tach.

Re: Where can I get a factory tach working properly
If you like the factory look (as I do ) check the For Sale section on this site as there are a few board members that professionally refurbish our dashes and they are like new when redone. I bought one from Paul, his board name is PT's70 and am very pleased with it.

Yes he media blasts the tins and rebuilds them so they are, I would think , better detailed than they left the factory. I havent insyalled mine yet but it looks brand new and Paul included the tach harnes and speed warning wire with it. I just looked and if you go to the Parts For Sale ( Page 2) section now another member VA72C10 has some dashes for sale and he does a pro job as well.
