NOS Yenko Nova Deuce Hood Tachometer Wanted

[Swissyenko]

I’m looking for a Yenko hood tach from Dixco. I prefer an NOS one in box, or a perfect used one.

I will pay big $$$ for a good Yenko hood tach.

E-Mail me your offer at: [email protected]

Thanks !!!

Hey SwissYenko - welcome aboard. The Dixcos that Yenko used are out there. Finding one with the sYc embossed logo will be challenging.

So, do you have a Deuce in Schweiz?

Call Don White. 267-246-6903. He may have what you need.

There are other options, tell us your intended use and we can help you out from there. Finding / buying an NOS Deuce tach is both risky and pricey, be careful.

Hello all

Thanks for all the posts.

It is really a risk to find a original Yenko tach. Today the Tachman reproduce the bezel with the silk screened Yenko logo. For this case, anybody can buy a cheap (well used) Dixco tach and put a repop bezel on it and tell a great story. :-)

I’m a collector of any hood tach. I’m only buying NOS ones with box and all the stuff like instruction manual, mounting hardware etc.

I own today 4 Chrysler Parts HTx-7 Dixco's, 1 Ford in the box, 1 Dixco HTx-7 in the box (8000 RPM), 1 Dixco HTx-9 (10’000 RPM) in the box, 1 Dixco Tricolor from 1973 and one very rare Dixco HTx-8 / 4-Cylinder (8000 RPM).

I collect them since years. I would pay a good price for a NOS Yenko with Box and all the stuff that reflects the originality.

We don’t have any Yenko Deuce Nova here in Switzerland.

Thanks
Patrik

You and me both!

That will be a very difficult item to pull as I've never seen a boxed Yenko version in 20+ years of looking...and I'm in Don's back yard.

But heck...wasn't it me that was just saying don't give up in your search for whatever it is you're passionate about?

Good luck in your search, and please do share if you manage to locate one.

Patrik,

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

So Patrik, you don't have a <span style="font-style: italic">DEUCE </span>Yenko in Schweiz [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/whistle.gif[/img]. Any other Yenkos? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

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

Many thanks!
