Dash question 69 rr

[bigmanjbmopar]

Just below the radio is a section of dash that is missing on my RR most pics I have seen this is a padded part built in to the dash pad, but on some options i think it was 8 track player? factory A/C controls or vents? Anyone know??

I stuffed after market gauges in there for now but would like to fill the hole with the correct part even if it don't work.

Not the best pic but..

Before pic when I bought it.

That area is for vents on A/C optioned RR's. That is a perfect spot to put gauges though. I have the same issue, you have to find a dash pad for a non a/c car which are very hard to come by. I havent checked the catalogs in a while though, they might be making them now. Where in Cali are you Big man?

You are right I found a pic finally of that option, My car did have A/C I want to fill the hole with the right vents, the gauges I was thinking of making a pillar pod style. Now were to find them.....

I am in the bay area east side. in the delta. how bout you? been trying to figure out how to get a Plymouth or even a B-Body club started out here not a whole lot of muscle out here just a bunch of chebys

heres mine a hemi rr.hope this helps. no a/c here.

its a padded trim panel 1 piece as you can see.

Drulling done over your hemi, other than replacing the whole dash I cant seem to find these vents either. Looks like there is a bezel and vents. Hopefully there out there somewhere.

If you don't want the vents and don't want to change the pad you could get a 68 filler panel. 68's didn't have a non-A/C pad they just installed the filler that will also work on your 69.

Bigman, I am in San jose. I know there arent many mopars around. If you werent so for away you could come to a nice car show that goes on in Santa Clara every Wed night until summer ends.

As soon as I get the motor dialed in hopefully thus week end, I can take her out a little futher than were I'm at. I think we need to a club 580 l 680 corridor club or something. I will be in san ramon on the
13th visiting family may take the car not sure yet but if I do anyone want to meet up?
