Looks good, I have one of those tachometers, wife found it at a sale but I am wondering if it is AC Delco and not Allis, just wondering what you think? I still have it on my shelf with my other Allis stuff cause it is neat. ------------- 1945 C, 1949 WF and WD, 1981 185, 1982 8030, unknown D14(nonrunner) |

| AC Delco is what I always assumed they where. Looks like there logo. I would think allis would have used its logo and not just the letters AC |

| I’m not 100% sure but this guy was hard core Allis And worked for them his whole life so I’m going to guess it’s Alice Chalmers but I don’t know for sure maybe not either way it was with all the other stuff so it’s cool to keep it together |

| If it is not AC Allis Dealers sold them. My dad bought one from Allis Dealer for use on our 60 combine for cylinder speed.Lynn |

The "AC Delco" logo used the "AC". You can tell by noticing that the letters are rounded on the A & C. Allis would have more square looking letters. The A-C would have been hyphenated. ------------- Pre-WW2 A-C tractors on steel wheels...because I'm too cheap to buy tires! |
