Some of those early tachs had a box that went with it. You would want to make sure before you bought it.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

Any tach can be upgraded to be "boxless" and use modern internals. No more looking for rare batteries that don't exist. Places like Wiliiamson's can do the job for a price.

$220 sounds about right, it's not a super good deal but if it functions properly go for it.
