I know that a few months ago, Year One had a radio delete plate for '68-'69 b-bodies available, but I can no longer find it. I'm looking for a delete plate for my '68 and the only thing that I can find is this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NOS-MOPAR...sQ5fAccessories which states that it's for a "RALLY DASH" for '68-'70 Super Bees and Roadrunners. Did the '68 RRs or SBs come with true Rally dashes? Does anyone still sell delete plates for my car?
Thanks in advance...

All 68 Bee's had rallye dashes std., but wasn't used in RR's untill 1970. That plate is for a rallye dash but not for a 68.

Never seen a dead-on reproduction of the '68-'69 RR plate; only originals at swap meets from time to time.

BEA has some great-looking stuff on their website, but my '68 RR radio block-off plate does not have that rectangular recess that theirs has. I've had 3 plates, all RR '68-'69 texture, none had that recess. The ribbed texture is the same as my '68 Chargers had, and I think my '69 Charger was ribbed too.

Those all appear to be ralley dash plates. RR delete is flat and has four screw holes near the outer edges

I'm looking for one, too. Anyone know what originals normally sell for at a swap meet or on ePay?

Thanks,

Scott
