1967 non air with unique 1967 only radio and hazard flasher combination

150 speedo -can’t tell if push-on (68 and later) or screw-on (up to 67/early 68) speedo gear

Vacuum gauge

Can’t tell if it’s go the wood grain inlay in it or not

Thanks for the info. There are threads where the speedo cable attaches so it's a screw on.

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.

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...

Pic of the back of the speedo, looks like a screw-on to me but I could be wrong.

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.
