My customer and I are guessing which instrument is correct for his S Code I say
120 mph without trip odometer
6000 rpm
oil pressure in the middle, left gas tank, right Amperemeter
at the moment he has not the correct instrument in the car and I would like to bring it back to original. Thanks for the help
From other examples
Top row (left to right) Fuel - nothing but a black face place holder (gauge/clock if ordered) - Water Temp
Large gauges (left to right) 120 MPH Speedometer - 6K Tach
Oil pressure light integrated in the tach at the bottom
Since this site is not focused on Mustang questions I invite you to visit ConcoursMustang.com if your looking for in-depth dives into Mustang/Shelby and related original details =
The Marti report does not specify the tachometer, so Im not certain that would have been included at all.
It appears to be separate from the GT option

Believe it was "automatic" with a 4 speed. Other examples with it not listed on the Marti report had tachs in my sampling. Could not find an example (s code 4 speed) without one.
Would mention that this is fairly common for 4 speed big blocks. The 69 big block 4 speeds I've owned didn't have tachs on their Marti though each had them (unrestored cars)
I believe also as I had many S Code´s from 67/68 with 4 speed that the 6k tach always and automatic was without as it was not needed. any other ideas or opinions? Thanks for the great help
If if has original wiring we should be able to tell if it originally had a tach 😉
Second thought is Kevin should have that info in his data, ask for a do over
Not that I don't believe Mr Speegle ;)

My 67 S code is a factory four-speed non-GT car. It came equipped with a 6K tach. Years ago I had a 68 S code factory four-speed non-GT car. That one was factory equipped with a 8K tach.

If your thinking of asking Kevin if he does not include items that are part of a package or comes automatically with a certain set of options I feel confident that he will confirm. Believe this is a path we have visited at least ones (with the S code tach question for 67) before
Believe I do have copies of cars with both Marti reports and buildsheets confirming tachs but not sure that those documents will sway others :)
If you say its true, I believe in you ;)
does somebody here has a mail address to Kevin Marti? Maybe via pm.
