    Someone out there have a reosonably priced Buick Tach they would part with,I would like a Kneeknocker one but any would work as I can find the housing I need.I will even take a poor condition non working working one if its restorable so to say.........Thanks.

    What year are you looking for? I have a spare tach from a 64 wildcat, working and in fair condition, it does have a small crack on the clear front starting from the red line dial.

    I have given up trying to buy one Ebay.There are people with deep pockets out there and they are out of my reach there.I would definitley like to see a pic of the one you have Gary.It sounds like it may be something I can afford maybe,or maybe not.Send me a pic if possible and a price to bgasper@citlink.net Thanks.Oh I seen the one on Ebay and it will stay where its at for that price.Atleast I cannot buy it anyway.

    I will try to post some pictures tonight after work. I have the console as well and will include pictures of that too. I have never sold any parts and have no idea what stuff is worth. I have tended to be a car parts packrat and never throw anything out (even the old used up parts I replace are in my basement somewhere-you just never know...) I have been dragging the tach and console (as well as many other parts) around for 10 years, even moving them across the country. Used to have a parts car but couldn't move it with me unfortunately.

    It looks like the tach isn't as good as I thought it was. Along with the crack there is some pitting or maybe even mildew under the glass, it was sitting in a car that hadn't run in at least a year and Canada is not like Arizona. I also noticed that when I set it up for a photo that the crome bezel is loose due to one of the integrated clips is broken. Sorry if this is a dissapointment to you but there you have it. here are the photos
