1971 Triumph Tr6 Smiths Tachometer (oem) on 2040-parts.com
Ruckersville, Virginia, US
Up for sale is a completely and meticulously refurbished Smiths tachometer from my 1971 Triumph TR6. This tach. has been disassembled and rebuild via the following: (1) Shell media blasted to bare metal (2) internal shell primed and painted in brilliant white (3) External shell painted with POR-15 gray to glass-like finish (4) gauge face white glove polished with Pledge and dust free cloth (5) original glass bezel retained and cleaned (6) new gaskets from Nisonger (7) swapped original flat black bezel with chrome from Nisonger (retained original and will include with sale) This came out so well I intended to keep it for a future swap. However, due to a change in priorities and limited space, my hope is this beautiful piece of history goes into a working "six"! Please let me know if you have questions.
