The next few that show up will sell for a lot. There are a handful of guys willing to sell the farm for one

Sorry to unearth this old topic...

Does anyone has ever seen a '70 C-Body with either one of those 2 accessory tachometers?
And which one was console-mounted, which one was hood-mounted?

I think somewhere on this board there is a thread discussing a rare factory option with a tach that sits in the clock opening of the dash, same position as top right photo in your post. I haven't seen a C Body with the other tach which doesn't mean they don't exist.

Yes. I’ve seen one.

There is only one tachometer in the option catalog.

It is intended to be mounted in the car, wherever the owner desires to mount it. The housing rotates so you can mount it under-dash if wanted. It was not designed to be mounted outside the vehicle.

The other gauge is a vacuum gauge.

@Chrome58 Here are the “catalog” gauges you were asking about.

They do exist, but are difficult to find.

They would be a nice addition to any MoPar!

I'd like to find that accessory tachometer and mount it on my console in my '70 Sport Fury.

Those are super cool, thanks for taking the time to share this.
