FOR SALE - JONES/MOTOROLA MODEL T ERA BRASS CASE TACHOMETER WITH BEVELED GLASS FACE READS ZERO TO 2200 RPM

This is a very nice well cared for Model T era tachometer that would be a great addition to a speedster dash. Glass face is 3" in diameter. It has spent many years in one our display cases. Era correct low RPM tachometers are very difficult to find especially in such nice condition. First $425 plus postage takes it!

I've had this old tach drive with grease cup on ebay for the last two or three months. It looks like it's meant to go in a hole in something and mesh with a gear of some kind. The teeth on this one are stripped but I think a bushing could be lightly welded onto the teeth and a pulley slipped over the bushing. The question would be,what size pulley. That's something the user would need to figure out. Also a bracket to hold it against the fan belt or? The listing number on my drive is 153703264948 and the price is $49.95 shipping included. I know some think it's improper to list stuff on ebay and then put the info here but in this case I believe it might help Jay sell his tach and maybe my drive to go along with it.
