I've never seen a non- GL model in the later years until
a friend found one just a few weeks ago.  No vet windows
no arm rests, old analog clock in the tach. position.  Rear facing
jump seats, with bed, but no talbe in the side  wall.   This is a
1990 model.  I think it must have been ordered because it
has AC, PS, PB,  and a great radio.

If you find a Camper model with a tach, it was either optioned from the dealer or the entire instrument panel has been replaced. You can't just add a tach to this instrument panel without replacing the foil board and the clear plastic gauge cover.
