Yellowbird, Thats exactly the kind of info I need to get the price down...seller says the tach is a good option to have and raises value, but I can claim its not original and doesnt add value. Would you say it decreases value? If it was originally a 400 car it should have a 400 hood with the tach in hood right? He also says the tach doesnt work...maybe it never did, maybe they switched the dash because the speedo broke or something and the replacement had the tach... thanks I am awaiting a call from the seller today to get more info about the car. Anyone have any important questions I might add to my list?
