72 tach and speedometer assembly

[Rey S.]

Hello fellow members,
Hope all had a great Christmas.
Now down to business.
Does any one have some pictures of the back of the tach and speedo showing what is final assembly that can be posted or sent to my PM? The vacuum control solenoid in particular on the back of the tach would be real nice.
Or some place where I get my hands on such photos or pictures ?
I had some good ones but when I transferred over to my new phone they all got lost.
Thanks -- Rey

To the membership,
Does anyone have or know where I can get my hands some photos showing the back side of the tach and the speedo? Either to post or send to my PM file.

Ray,
I can't assist with the pictures you're looking for but in regards to your phone, if it's an iPhone and you backed it up regularly to your computer or the iCloud all your pictures should be either on your computer or cloud...or, both.

Hello Leif,
Sad on my part about loosing my pics. FYI my phone is an Android.

If you wish to continue this conversation lets do it via the private messages rather than the TD forum.

Simple concept Rey, "The Cloud" is marketing hype for a bunch of servers accessed via the Internet where you can store stuff in order to make it available to hackers and spammers.

Hi Alan, Looking over the speedo pic you sent me I notice the AC dash outlet appears to be new or a near perfect rehab job. If new, where did you obtain it? If rehab what did you do with the rubber flap (seal) on the open/close damper valve?
Thanks

Re: 72 tach and spedometer assembly

Hi Rey,
In fact I didn't have to do anything with those astro-vents.
I do see some in pretty bad condition I think due to leaky windshields. My car did some leaking around the roof panel weather-strips and rear window weatherstrip, but not the windshield.
I just took a look around for the seals but I really don't see them offered anywhere.
How bad are yours?
Regards,
Alan

Re: 72 tach and spedometer assembly

Hi Alan, They both work OK but on has a chunk missing from the rubber flap so it won't shut off completely. So I am going to see if I can jury rig so kind of patch to at least cover the hole.
Thanks Rey

Re: 72 tach and spedometer assembly

Hi Rey,
Considering some of the things I see in the pictures you've sent I think THIS ONE will be pretty EASY for you and barely test your ingenuity!
Regards,
Alan
