1966 Tachometer Rebuilding---Where To Go?
A friend has a 1966 Canadian Pontiac with a factory tach and transistorized ignition. His tach quit working this past year.
Can someone recommend a trustworthy place he can send it to for rebuilding? Obviously with the rarity of this unit he wants to make sure it's done right and that it's someone he can trust to send it to, as he would have trouble finding a replacement if something happened to it. Also, he needs a new lens for it. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Carl Last edited by Carl S; 01-17-2019 at 01:56 AM. |

Peter Serio is the go-to guy around the forums. Has a good reputation and is a long time forum member. http://precisionpontiac.net/

For the lens, I'd ask either Bob Vidan or Bruce (63gpman). Both are on these forums and both are good sources of tach information.
Agreed, Pete Serio is the guy to sort out the electronics in the tach. Just as a side question, on your friends Canadian car, is the tach mounted on the dash (like an American built Pontiac) or is it in the centre console if its a Custom Sport? Just wondering?

And thanks for the input guys.
I hadn't though of asking 63gpman. I keep in touch with him over on the Canadian Poncho forum. |

I had my tach rebuilt by APT Speedometer in Minneapolis, they did a good job. I've used them for several other projects over the years, they can do complete restorations with new faces and even rechroming the case and bezel if necessary. http://www.gaugeguys.com
