68 Replacement Dash Parts ?
Hi Guys,
Seems like it's a bit harder to find replacement parts for a 68 model rather than 69-71.
I'm having trouble finding a dash panel that surrounds the water,oil, temp gauges. Someone has cut the panel out to fit a newer stereo in the car.
Anyone supply these new ?
Is the 69 model different ?
I would like to tidy up the interior of this coupe.
Thanks for any help.

Most all the vendors have it, Wilcox, Zips and the like, The 68 one is pricey though with the 69 less. The only difference is the 68 has a texture surface and the 69 is smooth.

FYI: the 68 console trim plate with the crossed flags on the tailpiece is also one year only.

Wilcox has them
Not only are there one-off parts for 68's, but there also one-offs for early and late model year 68's
That said, there are two different bezels, one for early 68's, one for late(has the winshield wiper override light)
