    Picked these two up @ the last swap, all-in I paid $7 bucks (two different tables).

    One "Green Line" and one "Twin Blue". Love the twin blue but it sounds like I've got some searching and spending ahead if I wish to run a set of them...

  5. Just picked up a set of 3 gauges (twin blue) at the Wahoo, Nebraska swap with orignal SW panel for GET THIS GUYS $2.00 and they are in great shape. (oil,amp,temp) Wish I could post photos but not smart enough.

    Screw you guys I'm going home!

    Haha.

    Not to derail the thread, but how does one date a SW instrument? I'd like to know the dat on my green-line too. I believe it'd be later 60's?

    Ahh yes, that is for the aqua colored ones. I meant the green-line (black face)

    But that's a cool scan, saved it to my computer. Thanks!

    in my SW catalog from 1966 they list the fuel gauge as part number 300-C for six volts, 301-J as twelve volts.
    The required senders were their own, depending on 6 or 12 volts and different depths of tanks. They don't list what their ohms were.

    Yes. I found the volt meter in a 3 gauge panel... I finally found a fuel gauge a while back too.

    There is a 5,000 tach in this panel. I believe you could offer significantly less than what the seller is asking as I had received a 48hr offer to buy for $149. That wasn't quite worth it for me to buy the whole panel for the Twin Blue tach, but it might be for you or someone else on here.
