Here are some pics of my survivor 69 charger RT triple black prior to restoration.....This was done before the digital world...tons of photos and a video but these are only a few on my computer...

Nice! Any idea where the tach wire would come thru the firewall?

Moparent ive got a pretty much unmolested Bee, there's a body plug about 1"x2" below m/c & outboard of steer.col. that is the only hole available. Here's some pics.

The lowermost dimple to the right of the bulkhead connector needs to be drilled out.

A worker back in the day choosing a different dimple...it does not mean it is incorrect but all I have have typically seen is under the vacuum lines....Plus there is a dimple in that spot if they never drilled it out...

For discussion purposes..
Would the location be changed because of the factory cruise control?

Now that would make sense if it was equipped with cruise....You so rarely see that option but I think your correct....Did that car have cruise?

Didn't know there was a difference. My last Charger did not have the tic toc tac. This one is loaded with options and i am just learning about the differences.
