The Part number is #1548631 for 1958 models
1958 was the last year of a tachometer which kept track of "cumulative engine revolution counter" a feature which first appeared in the 1953 Corvette. In 1958 the tach was used on 230, 245, and 250 hp cars but not on the 270 and 290 hp cars

Tried to attach a picture but cant figure out how ... So if you are intersted i can email pics.
