I need a non-air rally dash frame for a 68 Superbee.. what years and models can i look for? Does a 69 Charger use the same frame?

Can i use a air cond frame for a non-air car? are they the same? Will the end plates work? I need everything to look 100% correct. Thanks

I am 99% certain that you need a 68 only Rally dash frame from Super Bee, Coronet R/T or Charger. The dash pad changed in 69 which also changed the frame. Someone else will chime in to confirm.

No difference in a 68 or 69 rally dash frame. Either one will work on a 68. A non a/c frame would be better. If you use an a/c frame, you may have to do some metal fab work on the lower edges to omit the vent holes.

IIRC the ignition switch changed between '68 & '69 and the frame changed also.

I don't think there is a pop in insert for the different size ignition switch so it would be a 1 year only frame for each year 68 , 69 and 70.

the dashpad change for 69 on the upper pad was just a shape change from pointed to flat across the edge facing the driver , stud location I am 99.9% sure didn't change.

Yep, the difference is in the ignition switch hole, the 68 and 69 dash pads are of course different, but they will interchange.
