Default 71 tach needle replacement possible?
On my iPhone so I hope I did not miss it on search function. The needle broke on my 71 bb Vette tach. Anyway to replace just the needle or do I have to buy a new tach?
Thanks

Rick called back. Said he could rebuild mine original tach for less than buying a new reproduction unit. So I will be sending it to him for a complete rebuild soon. Thanks for info
