VA Restored original Tach dash with Air pressure - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

VA72C10 · 02-10-2012, 03:02 AM

--

Okay, my wife's grandpa isn't expected to live through the night so we'll have to travel to Alabama for the funeral this week likely and we will need travel money...

525 shipped via paypal as is or 500 shipped with the 60lb oil pressure gauge...and I'll throw in a standard wiring harness.

This is a super nice original tach cluster with the rare optional air pressure gauge. Factory tach, factory air pressure....not added....the lens is great also and isn't reproduced!!! Tach has a professionally re-screened face, notice temp gauge it looks NOS. Needles were slightly faded so I repainted with the correct fluorescent red/orange color. Nice original printed circuit with no damage. Original tins. The only aftermarket piece is the new black and chrome bezel. 67-68 style with choke shown but I have the other style without choke and can switch. 595 shipped via paypal or postal money order. Add 25 for an aftermarket tach wiring harness for points distributor, or 35 for an american autowire harness for HEI...

Also to note this has a 80lb oil pressure gauge. Can switch to 60lb oil pressure and will take off $25 from the price.

Please post interest here.

I can also restore your gauge setups or add a tach (factory or aftermarket) to your non-tach gauge cluster.

Here are some of the gauges....

Wow! I never even knew air pressure gauges were available in pickups. What would their purpose be,anyway?

They work great if you are running air bags.

I always heard air brakes for big trucks but this one came to me with the correct fuel gauge and bezel (not the larger notch area for the steering column) vs most that come from the big trucks

and yes, this is perfect for someone running airbags! Or onboard air for a trail riding truck, or someone who has air for train horns...

Boost gauge?!

Thats alot of boost to get that thing to move any significant amount!

Any idea what signal the tach reads? I was going to go with Autometer but this is nice and it would look much better. I am having a tough decision on an original set or an Autometer set for my Cummins conversion build. Air pressure gauge would be cool to use for boost gauge, a tach is a must for me(if i can figure out how to get a correct signal to it, and 80 psi gauge is really nice for a cold Cummins.

I am just unsure of the signal i need to supply to the tach and how to go about it.

Off to search i go.....

Thanks for those answers. I have a tach/air dash I put together combining light duty and heavy duty truck pieces in case I put rear bags in my '67 project. I was just curious to learn what the original use would be from factory in the 10-30 series trucks. I've only known of air pressure gauges in trucks with air brakes.

I agree,it's a nice dash.

per the forum rules we need to keep all the trade talk out in the open. What were you thinking for trade? I honestly have around 15 non tach clusters so I don't need any of those right now

Cruisin' Oklahoma · 03-08-2012, 12:15 AM

Ok. The only thing I was considering trading was my cluster. No biggie though .
