I saw a Tic Toc Tac advertised for the 68 Charger the other day on ebay and it stated that it was only for the 'rallye' dash cluster... Not really into those big tachs, so wondered would this fit mine (std '68 383 se) and what the hell was a rallye dash- and is it any different to mine as it looked identical (except for the finish, which was mottled, instead of er..'ribbed' like mine?)...

Any ideas, as usual, gratefully recieved...

Dan.... Just for your info mate..... :)

IF you do buy 1 of the original tach's for your dash, and it turns out not to work due to a fried resistor or something (like mine was) then you can always restore it and get it working again with this........

A few resistors just crumbled away on my old circuit board, so I knew it was knackered. I tried these people and got real good service.
Followed the instructions and fitted it to the rear of my tach, and she now works a treat :thumbright:

Piece of piddle to fit too :read2:

Hope it helps.

Jules.

Not too bad thanks- glad to get that out of the way though! At least the ol gal has a garage she can call home now, instead of being on the driveway...just need to make some room now so I can get her out when the sun (ever) comes...
fair play to you mate sounds like you have been slightly busy recently but the worst is over the fun begins making the house a home and finding all the right places for all your stuff :thumbright: love doing that

Dan, they look good but if you want an accurate rev counter and a reliable clock, they aint either (although you can get a quartz movement fitted to the clocks now which solves that, but it isnt a cheap conversion). Apart from that, what everyone else said :thumbright:

OOh ! Thats interesting.
My tic-toc-tac doesnt work, its on my list of jobs (along with the fuel guage with a mind of its own!).
Will check this out. Thanks for the tip !
