Tach Dash and Rear Panels **PICS** - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jakeslim · 07-31-2005, 11:47 PM

Got my new(to me) dash gauge installed this weekend with the Camaro tach and clock

. Everything works except the little seconds hand on the clock but I expected only a miracle would have had that working!
I took apart and polished the lens with Meguires #1 cleaner and a paper towel. It took out any scratches and made the lens VERY clear. I'd recommend
this to anyone looking to spiff up the lens. Easy to do, took minutes.
Also, my rear panels that I got off of Ebay have have been vinyl colored to black to fit my interior. Look ma, no speaker holes!

The tach looks really good. What year of Camaro did it come out of? And is is a tough install? Would like to try the same, as real tachs cost an arm and two legs in northern Canada.

Those gauges look really sweet. Nice score on the panels, too. Lookin good!

I bought the setup from a fellow member here off of ebay last week. I believe its from a mid 70's camaro(tach).

That is sweet! Tach and panels. And the tach's are just as bad down here for price. Keep us up on the progress. Jeff.

I like the clock. It looks good in there...almost like it came that way.

Any idea what car it's from?? I'd like to add one.
