Verne,


I had a felling you would have the answer . So it was most likely an accessory made for the 62 Fullsize? Any idea how they were mounted?


Thanks,


Jason

They mounted the same way as the typical '62 tach. Short cup with chrome bracket screwed to the steering column. The latest revision of the assembly manual shows this type of tach, so it's not an "accessory only". It's just very late production. (after June).

Thanks Verne. Looks like this worked out well, I have the cup and bracket on my other auctions.

Wow looks like I was given wrong info at some point! The one I had was stamped 6cyl on the back and had the same redline.
