Might be a long shot, but does anyone have one of these for sale? Schumacher made them. It's just the mount for the tach. This is a Abody dash but I think they work for various years and models.

If they don't you can make something very similar yourself using the mounting bracket that Autometer provides with their tachs. Here are some pictures of the one that I made years ago. It has worked for me for 35+ years. It is only held on with a magnet but is as close to permanent as you want it to be based on the magnet size you choose to use. I sprayed the underside of the magnet with some plastic-dip spray paint so it doesn't scratch my dash when I take it off. I wired it with a round 4-prong trailer lug so it easily disconnects. For the magnet I actually had to scale back to a smaller one than I used originally to keep it removable. I had originally created it as a way to be able to put the tach and my pullout radio in the trunk when I went to bed at night as my car was street parked for the first 15 years I owned it. It also allows me to put the tach off to the side while street driving and move it right in front of me when driving at the track. I am actually going to make a modified version of this over the summer that will use two magnets and a bridge of polished aluminum between them so I can bring all my gauges up top and be able to move them as needed to make street driving easier to see but put them more front and center at the track.
