Updated / Custom Tach

So, just got my original '84 tach back from North Hollywood Speedometer, repaired & customized. Kevin was great to work with. Total turnaround was 2 weeks, overnighted this one out, and he 3-day'd it back to me, so they're about 1 week in-house turnaround right now.

I wanted to rotate the gauge face without turning the tach - this keeps the directionals in-place. So... whaddya think?

Nice touch. Much better than just twisting the stock unit.

Fred,

I like it. I', thinking about a similar converssion and do the speedometer too so that the needles on the gauges are at the same angle.
