NO tachometer is listed for Sunny Truck, but only a Clock. Even so it is common to see tachometers installed in 1200 Trucks, as they fit the same.

620 Tachometer
The Datsun 620 truck tachometers fits Datsun 1200 and looks very similar. But 620 models have 7000 rpm red line for L20B engine (1200 tach has 6400 or 6800 rpm redline).

620 in Japan did not have a factory tachometer option.

The later Tachometer Wiring is different. It is a typical tap connection, instead of the Datsun 1200 'passthru' induction wiring.
Comparison
1200 and 620 tachs are wired completely different. See Tachometer Wiring.
