Santa Cruz, California, US
This auction is for a vintage Faria 8,000 RPM tachometer. This tachometer was made by Faria instruments. This tach has the same face as the infamous Rotunda 8,000 RPM tach with the Faria Logo in place of the Rotunda logo. This tach is for 8 cylinder applications.
The 8,000 RPM Rotunda tach is well known for being installed on early to mid 60's high performance Ford vehicles including the 64 Thunderbolt and early Shelby Cobras.

This is a very rare tachometer that will really stand out at car shows and cruise nights. This will definitely separate you car from the rest of the pack! This is your chance to own a tachometer like the Rotunda version at a fraction of the cost.
This tach is in very good condition as shown. The face is very nice with a bright vibrant dial as shown.. The lens curved glass lens is very nice with no scratching or damage. The original lamp on the top of the face still works! The front bezel shines well with no pitting. The original mounting bracket is intact as shown. This is simply a very nice original Faria 8,000 RPM tach.

Thu, 03 Apr 2014THE Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM) has revealed through a new survey that a decline in cognitive abilities – for example the onset of dementia – is the greatest concern that families have about elderly relatives driving.
