    I'm wondering if anyone knows of a tach that would match the size and look of a stock 32 ford speedo. I picked up a speedo on ebay and I'm looking to match the diameter and style/period. Any help appreciated. I'm not finding anything.
    The bezel fits a 2.75" hole and it's rear mount.

    Thanks for any help.

    Buy another speedo and have an instrument shop convert it to a tach. They'll make a new face, remove the odometer, and recalibrate the works.

    The S-W Wings Series is close.

    Thanks guys. My original idea was to have them next to each other in the dash of the 27 roadster. The speedo is smaller than the common SW 3.125" size guage. I guess there may not be anything out there to match. I may just have to mount my tach on the column like Denis. Thanks again.

    Alchemy, that's an interesting idea, but I have a feeling that would be way too much $$$.
    Thanks
