I have a early R/T with the Standard dash

how do you tell the early speedometer from later style, I understand there are two.

Also over my glove box it is shiney black plastic with lines and no R/T emblem is this correct for the 68?


There comes a time in life, when you walk away from all the drama & people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh, forget the bad, and focus on the good.

from what i have been told, the early models have the speedometer that has 1 thru 15 and the late year has the 10 thru 150, and the shiny black piece is correct only to 68, i think the 69 has the woodgrain with the r/t emblem, i may have the speedometer backwards, i cannot find my info on the computer, i had saved my research of this,

1-15 speedo is late..
10-150 is early..
Reason they changed it is the 10-150 was to busy to read easily..

10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100110120130140150 early

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Late

If you just look at the early lettering & realise how crowded they get you'll remember why it got changed..
