My earliest build 69 A body is a LeMans (no tach) and it has the heavy font speedo (photo attached) so the switch must of been earlier. I had in the past two GTO’s built in late September and early October and they both had the thin font speedo.
It wouldn’t surprise me, though if you could have a car that would have the heavy font speedo, but might’ve been also built with the thin find tachometer simply because of consuming inventory of the relatively uncommon tachometers.
