Cluster Tach/Clock Prototype..............

A friend and I have been busy adding a tach and clock to a '64-'66 dash cluster. This is just the prototype and has been trial and error.
I think we are pretty close to making a final unit for his truck.
Check out the pictures.....

Going to look great when you are finished!

I am about to do the same for a buddy of mine. We have the clock from a 1965 Chevy Nova II.

Do you know what size hole saw he used for the tach opening? I haven't measure yet.

Thanks for your comments. We just opened the faceplate a little more to show more of the clock face. It looks better.
After were paint the face it will look better.
I'll try to get a better picture of the whole cluster.

Re: Cluster Tach/Clock Prototype..............

The tach is out of a late '70s GMC. A friend found it many years ago, I can't remember what model but it was a larger truck. The clock is out of a '66 Chevelle.
In the images, both the clock and tach appear to be uncentered. It's just the camera angle.
