Are they the same size as the ones made for the cars? They look smaller.

In '84 we had 78 (or possibly newer) malibu dashes and everything was real car equipment.
There was hardly any tactile feedback on the steering, brake or even the gear selector, though.

It makes me sad that we didn't avail ourselves of decent cameras and film to take photos back in the day.

74 Challenger Rallye 360 4 speed. This is the day before we went to Fargo-Moorehead raceways and ran a 12.6 @ 109mph.
Here's a few from back in the day. My daughter pictured with my 70 Charger R / T SE was 5 years old then,she is 31 now.
I still have the car. This is a current photo of it,and one from the early nineties pictured with my Little Red Express truck, and my former A12 Superbee. I still have the truck too.
