I do not have any interior photos of the car, the only thing I have to go on is the HVW article.  It says a 10,000 rpm Autometer tach.  So I thought I might look for one like this:

I still need a 4-cylinder Autometer Tach, 1400-9600 rpm sidesweep, for magneto or standard ign for a period gasser rebuild project.  Any help appreciated.

I found one and sent it to Autometer for testing and they said it worked perfectly, but only for a v-8.  They said it could not be coverted to a 4-cyl application.
