Does anyone have recent experience with having a 20 series tach refurbished.
My 720 tach, as purchased, records speed but not hours. According to adds in GM and 2 Cyl,
it doesn't appear that EverGreen Restoration does tachs. He (Jerry Trcka) has an excellent reputation
on other guage restorations.
Any comments appreciated.
