Can anyone tell me what year this dash is out of, '67, '68, '69?

67 dash bezel, yes. But that's a 1969 speedometer. The 67 and 68 spedometers had the numbers oriented radially, the 69 the numbers were vertical.

Ed. It could also be a 70 or 71 speedometer from a Duster. I think those rally style instruments were dropped from A bodies in 72; not positive though.

Thanks for the info. There are threads where the speedo cable attaches so it's a screw on. Somethings odd. That's definitely a 69 and later speedometer face, so it should be a push in type.

67 bezel and 67 circuit boards for sure, the 67 boards were blue, they went to green after that...
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Weird. Could someone have taken a couple spedometers apart and made a franken-speedometer? Or am I just dead wrong?
This is what a 67-68 should look like.

I guess anything is possible. I bought this many years ago at a car show/swap meet.

One of those restoration decals, perhaps? Pull the speedo and look at the date on the back of it. It may just be a Parts Dept replacement that was built with combination of parts. Or like was said a older refacing job. Good discussion on 1968 150mph speedos: https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/threads/1968-150-mph-discussion.492704/Nonetheless, some can just buy a screw in speedo cable and run it in a 69-71 car. Or just run it in a 67-68. The straight up numbers are easier to read.
