Jeff - of course you have heard of YENKO installing HTs on their '70 Deuces. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

Yes, but I'd be pretty optimistic to assume this is a Yenko car. I'm looking for some stories about lesser known dealerships adding a Delco hood tach (I think the Yenkos had the aftermarket Dixcos). Mine was definitely a 1967 Delco unit. The Delco harness is still in the car and the hole in the hood is for the 1967 unit, not the later 1968 and up unit. |

I have a interesting 72 Chevelle GM Dealer Video. Part way thru, it shows a line up of past years Chevelles and the depreciation rates. Interestingly enough the 69 Malibu has a hood tach....These must have been from GM pics they had on file ??

Thanks, guys. I am already watching that tach, as well as a few others, on eBay. However, it is definitely not the tach that was on my car. The NOS one on eBay is the later short version with the dual lamps. The hole for that one is about 3.75 inches with 2 mounting holes and a rivet. The hole in my hood is about 3.0 inches with four mounting holes (early tall tach). Very cool though. The AC logo makes it a great fit for a "day-two" Chevy item as opposed to the Pontiac or Buick labeled ones. I won't be bidding on it, so if anyone wants it...... It would also make a great display item for you "new in the box" accessory hounds.
