I had a copy of the datsun one printed out by my sign writer and pulled apart the after market one then stuck the sticker on that ;) it was a smith tachometer from memory. It's in storage at the moment with the rest of my interior. There were a few gauges that would have worked. Measure up some mini or escort gauges and try them or try robinson instruments, that's where I got mine. Then google image the original gauge and have a sign place print one or print a copy and glue it- just make sure the rpm marks are in the right place lol
