I used a sheet metal screw. It was pretty small, but I don't remember what size. If you have the under dash AC vents it'll be harder to get the screw in than if you don't. Without AC you can just reach under the dash with a screwdriver.

Roger Ram Rod has it right. His just needs to be fastened to the dash frame. Here's a couple pictures that may be helpful. You can track down a bracket or make something that does the same job. There are at least three brackets for sale on Ebay now, or post a wanted ad on the forum and you...

The Retrosound speaker isn't anything special as far as sound quality, but it does have a couple features that are helpful. It can be wired to be an 8 ohm speaker to work with the old radios. Doing this requires losing the stereo feature it has if wired as twin 4 ohm speakers. If you're...

Speaker is a 4" x 10". It mounts to a bracket, which in turn mounts to the underside of the dash with bolts whose heads are covered by the defrost vents. Which dimensions do you need? Hole to hole on the tabs on the ends? Or the holes on the speaker that mount to the bracket? Not my...

The knobs probably matched when your car was new. Once you get the part numbers, you can search to see which is correct. Then you can scrounge for matching parts. Lots can be found here and on Ebay. Or just be happy everything works. Your car, your choice.

The OEM ones are rectangular boxes, not like the round Tridon replacements.

It's a good idea to run an auxiliary ground wire from one of the screws to a chassis ground. Putting a bayonet connector on the wire helps if you need to pull the cluster out.

Blue is the High Beam indicator. The corresponding hole on the other side of the center pod is the brake warning light. I don't believe there's an oil pressure light on Rally Dashes. Maybe some years, but not '68.

Newark, NY is a small town with no extra housing for "asylum seekers." It's also not a sanctuary city or in a sanctuary county. There's no welcome mat out. I also wonder if Legendary doesn't want to invest a lot of time and money in employees that will bolt as soon as a better free stuff...

That's it in a nutshell. The shutdown stopped production, but didn't stop orders from coming in. The workforce only partially returned. It's in a rural area of the rust belt. The skilled labor just isn't there. Most of their previous workforce acquired their skills on the job over time...

Hahaha, I've never done that! :rofl: All good, brother.

@Moparone why the red X? Have you been to the Newark facility lately or were you at the Macedon shop with Marty and Ron?

Check out this thread: LED Tail Lights

Our resident lighting expert, @slantsixdan recommends using ceiling paint for the best reflectivity.

I'd been thinking about the LEDs. Then in the space of a week I saw a nice '66 or '67 Olds 442 with a slope nosed Volvo smashed under its rear end. Then I saw a early Mustang on a flatbed tow truck with its rear end smashed. Drivers are so used to seeing a wall of red when a newer car brakes...

Have you checked the polarity? You might need to switch the leads around in the lamp socket. I got LEDtronics 1157s ten years ago. They're fine. I plugged them in and they worked. You might have issues with flashers needing resistance in the circuit to work properly. I didn't, but I left my...

The pushbuttons can be swapped for chrome if you want. You can find good used ones, and I believe they are or have been repopped. The big chrome mounting bezel can be removed. There are two big, beveled bolts which appear to be missing on your radio. Also, there a few small bolts, which are...

You're welcome. :) The bezel pictured in your last post is the main instrument panel bezel. The instrument cluster fastens to the back of it, and then it is screwed to the dash. It just lays over the radio. The radio doesn't fasten to it. The bezel has the holes for access to the dial...

Here's some pictures from a '68 Barracuda. I believe they are different than Darts and use a different bezel on the front. Instrument panel bezel is removed. The radio mounts from behind the dash. The opening in the dash only needs to be big enough for the wheels and dial to fit through...

Different face plates fit different models and can be swapped. A photo of your radio would help.

In 1968 & '69 that area was carpeted as part of the extra cost interior decor package. The description of the decor package for 1967 doesn't mention it, so maybe not available. Maybe a 1967 expert could weigh in and enlighten us.

Have you asked Elwood what he uses?

That makes sense. It's also a little more difficult to snag the button with a coat hanger.

Or a nitrous button :thumbsup:

Get a clear picture of the numbers on it and I'll look it up in my '75 parts manual.

Legendary wants Classic to sell lots of their products, so they price theirs higher than Classic to not undercut them on price. This keeps Classic happy, and Legendary still gets the sales while dealing with one large customer instead of hundreds of small ones.

Every time I've been past Legendary's facilities since the shutdown they've had a big help wanted sign out front. Specifically, it says they're looking for sewing machine operators. Ron has been with Legendary since he was the only employee.

I've used Herb's Parts interior paint on metal with good results. Color match was decent. I have no idea how it works on plastic. Herb's Parts: HERBS PARTS INTERIOR PAINT, Interior Paint, PAINT

Good catch. I think all of the Barracudas in question had the flasher switch located above the headlight switch. Did they go to the steering column for 1970? I don't remember, I haven't owned a '70s Mopar in more than 20 years.

The speedometer number orientation and straight grain on the woodgrain make it 1969 or later. Or very late 1968 according to some. Coupled with knobs instead of thumbwheel radio controls, it makes it 1971 or later. I'm not sure of the last year of the A-Body Rallye dash.
