Re: Motion installed tack
Joe,
Do you think the Sun Super Tach with the white needle is the first incarnation? Maybe '68? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gifVerne |
Re: Motion installed tack
I believe so, but to be perfectly honest, I'm not 100% positive... most of the catalogs and ads are black and white... I guess I could check the backsides for date codes if i was ambitious enough... maybe I'll do that when I start digging stuff out to pack for Collinsville.

Re: Motion installed tack
Joe,
I bought a new Super Tach head with a white needle and it was stamped 68. The one I bought for my car in 69 (stamped 69) has the red/orange needle. I'm not sure if the Super Tach was out earlier than '68 https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif Verne |

I'll have to look at mine but I think the SST90 has a white needle, orange shift indicator and a green stripe vs. the blue stripe like the one on the far right in Joe's picture. |
Re: Motion installed tack
Dennis,
When I refer to the Super Tach, I'm meaning the electronic one that doesn't need a sender. I thought all the SSTs were that way. Maybe I'm wrong. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gifVerne |
Re: Motion installed tack
Joe,
Could you possibly help identify this gauge panel I have? It's aluminum and doesn't have a manufacturer's name on it that I can find. I've looked through a number of old speed catalogs and can't find one like it. Thanks, Verne http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...Gaugepanel.jpg |

[/ QUOTE ] I could be mistaken on the model numbers but the early 'full face' models were available in 7000 and 9000 RPM configurations. I think they both had the dark lime green inner band on the scale, white needle and flourescent orange 'red line'. I had a 7K model but it evidently went away a few years back. I still have two of the 9K models along with their EB9As. If I recall correctly, the newer transistorized Super Tachs were only available as 8 & 10K versions, another way to differentiate. But as I look back at Joe's picture I see a Green line 9K piece on the far left, and a Blue line 7K piece sitting on top of it, and I thought the Blue lines were all transistor models. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif (Understand, this gray matter is TRULY GRAY now! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif) |

I purchased a panel that looked like that from Honest Charley years ago - I'll see if it is listed in the old catalog I've got. Glenn |
