New shifter and "mini" tach........Pics

Post by ratfink »

Here is a my new shift knob and tach I installed today. I have wanted a die for a shifter for along time. I found this one on the internet. It was alot more than I wanted to spend, but no price is too high for 'ol blue.
(the tach was free)

Shift knob looks good.

What brand is the tach? Looks like it doesn't get in the way of your gauges.

72stepside: The Charger runs awesome, it is a blast to drive.

CA180: The color is what pushed me over the top. They only made 1500 of the sublime Daytona's. (as I'm sure you know)

dcbullet: It is a sunpro as bobbyinpd stated. It works pretty good and doesn't block everything. I have the big Autometer W/shift light, but it is too big to put in the truck.

ezernut9mm: I had a couple of 1.5 inch white dice, but when I found the blue swirled one, I had to get it. I also installed one of the white ones in my sons '73.
Thanks for the comments, Ratfink

Ratfink - Is that charger a two door? I thought they only made sedans.

(edit) Nevermind, it's a WCC car right? I was almost certain the factory didn't make them, so I did a little research and came across the WCC models. (/edit)

Thanks,
