Restored 60-63 Factory Tach Gauge Cluster

Restored '60-63 factory tach cluster. I've cosmetically restored it but I don't have any way to check to see if the gauges work. All needles move freely and park where they should with no signs of damage. Price is $575.00, sold as-is, no guarantee that they work. Paypal or UPSP money order preferred. Post your zip and I'll get you a shipping quote if you're interested in buying. Please no PM's according to the buying/selling rules. Will be shipped with tracking and insurance, and well packaged to avoid damage. I ship within two business days.


What I did to restore it:


Gauge faces have Greenback Decal's decals applied. These are the highest quality, most correct overlays available IMO.

Gauge needles have been repainted the correct florescent orange/red.

The housing, bezel, and gauge holders have been glass bead blasted and repainted in the correct finishes. Bezel was primed and wetsanded prior to painting for a smoother finish. The intermediate plate was stripped and repainted the correct low gloss black.

It has a nice original lens that I wet sanded and buffed for better clarity. I stripped the old lettering paint and applied new paint. One of the niceset 60-63 lenses I've seen; these aren't available new.

Cleaned the original turn signal, "TAND"M LOCK", and "OVER SPEED" lenses. They light up very nicely.

Odometer set to 99,999. I can reset it to match your truck's mileage if you prefer that.

***It is missing the wiring harness but the harness is the same as a regular cluster with gauges so you would be able to reuse your original harness. The tach harness was originally separate and would be simple to make one. ***

Very nice, did the tach dashes only have one blinker bulb? I don't see the left one.

Re: Restored 60-63 Factory Tach Gauge Cluster

what do you feel comfortable going? Im looking for one for a customers truck- but as you know spending someone elses money on parts that may or not work is risky business. It isnt that hartd to test everything out. Just stack some resistors and bench test it. The speedo can be done with a drill and old cable. Give me a call at the shop- lets work something out 925-978-0089

Re: Restored 60-63 Factory Tach Gauge Cluster

unfortunately it doesnt work- the speedo worked for about 15 miles, starting making noise and then broke. The tack bounces all over. The oil pressure works perfectly. Oh well you win some you loose some
