Would a WH23 car have the rallye cluster (round gauges) like the Super Bee, or would it have the horizontal bar cluster like the Road Runner?

I thought round gauge cluster was for WM (super bee) and WS (Coronet R/T) cars and rest got the standard dash.

Thanks

WH had horizontal cluster with 120mph speedo.

WM/Super Bee had rallye cluster.

WS/RT; standard equipment was horizontal cluster with 150mph speedo. Available as an option (code A62) was the rallye cluster.

Trivia note; the Super Bee rallye cluster did not include the tach, it was a separate option. The optional rallye cluster on the R/T included the tach.

Thanks. I was poking around on the Hamtramck site but wasn't sure what option code it would have been under. I ran out of time as I was working and needed to get some stuff done. Darn work gets in the way of surfing the web.

It really got weird in 1970. Both performance Plymouths (RR & GTX) finally got the ralley cluster standard. It continued in the Charger and Super Bee, but was still an option on the Coronet R/T.

Looking at this, does that mean the tick-tock-tach wasn't available on anything but the bee?


I can't afford this. mark

The tick-tock-tach was available on the R/T as part of the A62 rallye dash option. The N85 tach option on an R/T with the standard dash gave you the square tach.
