Is there a difference between the tach guages from different years? Would a 68 tach dash work in a 72? Pictures showing the difference would be awsome.... thanks!

No difference that i know of. However, most are for a V-8 and they also made a 6 cyl and a mechanical drive diesel tach.

I think that is plenty of money for that one. It has been listed a few times and hasn't sold. By the time you buy a bezel and printed circuit and the correct gauges you will have well over $200 in it and still have a discolored tach head that may or may not work. (my opinion)

Agree! Good old fashioned common sense.
