You don''t want the "selling price"; you want the "asking price". When you actually sell the items, the money you finally get for them is their "selling price".

The tach appears to have a redline of 6500 rpm. No 1972 Corvette engine had a redline of 6500 rpm. I'm no expert on the nuances of C3 Corvette tachometers; but I'm thinking that tach is from an LS-6 vehicle (more likely from 1971). The dial face on the tach does look much better/newer than the speedo head. Maybe the tach dial has been replaced with an aftermarket dial.

I have no idea what they might be worth.

Depending on how fast you want them gone and how desperately someone needs them, I'd say you're looking at $50-$100 each. I see them on ebay at twice that but few sell at those prices.
