Saw this on CL and had to snag it up! its a little dirty bt all has tested fine! going to do a little "restore" to it and possibly put it in the 81..not bad for 15 bucks!

BigRed76 · 01-20-2011, 12:51 AM

15 bucks?!? Thats a steal.

ch2000 · 01-20-2011, 12:55 AM

That is a deal rarely found! Great score!

texasfunk · 01-20-2011, 01:02 AM

I was almost afraid to email him, as there hae been a coupl lately on CL but they were asking ridiculous money...as soon as he stated price i was already on my way to get it!

Pop's C-10 · 01-20-2011, 01:37 AM

That was a steal

**Dieselwrencher** · 01-20-2011, 03:51 AM

You make me sick!

Good score man, wait, better than good, score of the year there man! It pays to watch CL sometimes.

str8axle55 · 01-20-2011, 10:47 AM

Great score. I picked one up over the summer for $20 from the junkyard. They are pretty few and far between around here.

silvereagle07 · 01-20-2011, 10:55 AM

Great score! What years or models do they come in?

motornut · 01-20-2011, 11:11 AM

gee may wana buy a lottery ticket,thats lucky!

kikkegek · 01-20-2011, 01:53 PM

could you do me a favor and make picture of the bottom right of the gear indicator, where the cable goes (bents) over down and connects to the steering shaft?

That part is broken in mine dash and I want to see if I can fix it without buying a new dash. thanks man!

Fixwhataintbroke · 01-20-2011, 06:55 PM

jojoman · 01-20-2011, 08:03 PM

71veronica · 01-20-2011, 08:54 PM

As or more than the 72 back trucks. This one is especially rare, an 81 up cluster out of a 30 series or smaller truck. Jay

They are the same. Mine has dual tanks and I have a big truck (C40-c50) tach and it works fine. This the the small gas guage inside the large tach housing.

texasfunk · 01-20-2011, 11:50 PM

Thanks for all the compliments and what not! Took it apart today to start cleaning and such
