SO on my 70 Bee would I have to pay extra for the tac? I like the standard clock and cant decide which one I want in the car. Which one would you want? Wish this was my biggest problem in life lol
 
I bought a 1969 Super Bee new. It had the standard equipment Rallye Clock and no radio. By paying the option price for the tach/clock combo and the AM radio, the dealership installed them. I think each of these options cost around $50.00.
 
Let's see:

If I had a second tach that I used then I guess I would go for the CLOCK, but if the Tic Tac Tac was the only tach then I would want it.
 
Options, both clock and tic tac clock. My Superbird.. of all things!

You do like everyone else did. You put a REAL tach on your steering column, or dash > Sun Super Tach. (... oh, yeah, and you mount it in front of the stupid, useless clock in the dash. )
 
Chrysler cheapened the SuperBee and RoadRunner up in 1970, compared to 1969. The Rallye Clock was standard equipment on the 1969 'Bee, but was optional in 1970. In 1970, a floor-shifted 3-speed manual was the standard transmission, and the 4-speed was about a $200.00 option. The 727 automatic was another $50.00 more than the 4-speed. In 1969, the 3-speed was not even available, and the 4-speed was standard equipment. The Torqueflight was about a $50.00 option. However, the RoadRunner gained the Charger/SuperBee Rallye instrument panel for 1970.
 
Were they accurate within a couple thousand RPm?

And yet all 70 super bees came with the wood grain rally dash. Weird.
