i'm surprised you didn't pull the guts outta the SAE tach and glue 'em into the porsche 914 faceplate and housing.

(just thinking out loud)

is it really BOLTED thru the top of the dash?

oh - come on - this can't be the first time you've seen a tach mounted this way popcorn[1].gif

i took a full inventory of the cracks in my dash and came to the conclusion after much deliberation and consultation that - drilling a hole thru it - would not reduce its short or long term value : )) so out came the dremel and an extension cord.

That's uh pretty bad. The tach that is. I think I will sports a redneck beard and get me some trailer hotties.

I would add a grant steering wheel as well. IPB Image

a Grant wheel - no way - the concours judges would deduct for that
