Default Re: NOS Yenko Nova Deuce Hood Tachometer Wanted

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: mockingbird812</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Patrik,

Just silk screening does not cut it for a real Deuce/Dixco hood tach. The face bezel is also embossed...

</div></div>

Hello Sam

I have knowledge about the special Yenko face bezel. But I was surprised about a long research, also original Yenko tach exists with non embossed bezels.

Dixco produced so many variations; often they changed the production during one year. I’m collecting since year’s also any printing information. Actually I’m desinging a Website for the Dixco theme (not released yet).

Just one small information. Many people belief the Tricolor was a Ford tach or a reproduction. But they are all wrong. The legendary Tricolor Dixco HTx-7 was introduced trough Dixson 1973. The changed the design during 4 years tree times.

First Edition: With a transparent tach work inner housing

Second Edition: HTx-977 (I have a picture from a catalogue, never saw one live!)
Very very special Dixco front bezel.

Third Edition: With a white tach work inner housing. Different illumination.

Here a picture from a first edition Tricolor HTx-7

Thanks
Patrik
