Description
Dixson Incorporated (aka Dixco) was launched in 1958 on Vashon Island in Washington State by Bruce Dixson with a sole focus on making tachometers, an important instrument that was frequently omitted by manufacturers of domestic vehicles in America and one that hot rodders, drag racers, and muscle car tuners wanted. Dixson made a variety of styles of tachs for both interior dash applications and exterior hood mounts, the ‘Can Tac’ being one of the more popular of the latter. Dixson ended up taking over the operations of General Meters in 1963, a financially failing company in Grand Junction, Colorado that supplied Dixco with the internal movements for their tachometers. This resulted in Dixco relocating from Washington to Colorado that same year. In 1987, Dixco sold out to a multinational OEM supplier to a multitude of industries that continued to offer many of the Dixco designs for many years to come.

Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods.

Sizing
Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
