Name is Dustin, live in southwest missouri. I dont currently have and olds but have owned 2 79 hurst olds in the past. I registered for the site because i have a few parts i was wanting to try and get some information on. I have a digital tach out of a 74 hurst olds that isnt in the greatest condition, i was wondering if i should try and sell it the way it is or try and get it restored then sell it and if there were any places that could restore it for me. I know the tach is a pretty sought after piece. The second piece i have is an air leveling control out of the same 74 hurst olds. I don't know if this was a factory option or dealer installed i can not find any information on this piece. Thanks for any help

I always wanted one of those controlled leveling system I wonder if that would be the same for a 77 Could you send me a picture to allen_442@live.com.

the lens on the tach is probably the best part about it. The level control thing is just a gauge and a valve. i will try and get some pictures of this stuff

I had my tach repaired at Factory Service Center, an electronics repair place in Richardson, Texas. I've used them since the 80's. Here is a link to their eBay store. http://stores.ebay.com/FSC-STEREO-OEM-STORE?_rdc=1
I know at one time Brad442 had some tach lenses made that had a new logo applied. They looked great but I don't know if there are any around anymore.:confused:
Hey Joe, I'm sure you have seen this listed on eBay and it is the 73 model with the grommet on the back for the wires.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230576740570&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT
Good luck.

Welcome to the site Dustin, nice to see another Missourian on board!:) Maybe look for a car to use your parts on...:)

[swigs84]

i highly doubt that the tach works, the wires have been torn out of the back. it out of of a 73 not a 74 like i originally posted. it is in pretty rough shape, a lot of the paint is chipped off. someone has soldered one of the board before. i will try and get some pictures of the stuff tonight.

[swigs84]

can i email this pictures to someone so they can post them for me?

[texxas8902]

I believe that if you post 5 times then you can post your own pics. I'd do it for you but you can't get PMs until you post 5 times and I don't want to post my e mail where it can get trolled.

You can email the pictures to me keith455@syty.net or put them on a site like photobucket or flikr and then link to them.

[swigs84]

[keith455]

If you can't get to the pics let me know and i'll download and attach them.

[swigs84]

they work for me but i had to sign into my hotmail accout to view them so i dont know if other people will be able to see them or not. Thanks for your help like i said the tach is pretty beat up and the housing on the level control is busted.
