Default Re: Is this a real yenko hood tach or repro

Its a real Dixco tach, with the "first version" white numeral face... the Yenko logo is a repro, looks to be a decal or piece of paper glued to the face... note its a different shade of black in the center area of the logo... if it was a silk screen the white would be the only color of the silkscreen, not the black. Also looks like its missing the metal nut I mentioned above, but I can't tell for sure... You could fabricate something to attach it to the hood, but the original metal nuts are unique looking, and pretty tough to find if they are missing. If it works, its probably not a bad deal for 350.00. If I didn't just buy another SW tach I don't need, I'd probably buy this myself... can't have too many...
