    '67 Plymouth Gauge Panel for 6 round gauges

    It was 5 years or so ago that I was doing it and a 3D printer that was big enough to do the full length was prohibitively expensive. I'd think it would take a lot of finish work after the print to get a surface texture that you would want to show, but I only base that on the prints that I've...

    '67 Plymouth Gauge Panel for 6 round gauges

    They did a great job on the Charger dash, so they just chose to make the Plymouth ones not so great.

    '67 Plymouth Gauge Panel for 6 round gauges

    If you look closely at the interior picture you can see that the radio has extra knobs in it now. The Vintage Air billet knobs are a close enough match to the original knobs that I bought extra of them and used them in place of the OE knobs since several were broken. A keen eye will note that...

    '67 Plymouth Gauge Panel for 6 round gauges

    It cost over $2k just to have it milled...and I have a buddy who runs that shop. The laser scanning cost another $2k and was mostly a waste of money. The file I got back from scanning was only useful for general shape. I had to manually build the end product from a lot of measuring and...

    '67 Plymouth Gauge Panel for 6 round gauges

    When rebuilding my '67, I wanted more info than the stock gauges would give me. Since there wasn't, and probably still isn't, an aftermarket option, I set about building my own. It took a lot of time and money, but I did get design one and have it made and it bolts right up in my car with no...

    Quarter glass? AMD not good.

    The Auto City Classic glass is about as curved in about the same places as the AMD glass, so I'll be sending that back. Here are some pictures that I sent to AMD to show the difference in curvature. These are from the front edge of the window with AMD on the left. These are from 6" back...

    Quarter glass? AMD not good.

    I just didn't think of it until after I'd already gotten the AMD one. It took all of my willpower to show no anger or frustration when someone else broke it.

    I'm pretty certain I had an account here 10 years ago, but it seems to be gone. Anyway, I'm back and still working on my car, though I can now drive it as well...when I'm not working on it. Here are some pics along with specs: 1967 Satellite 2dr hardtop Gen3 7 liter aluminum hemi 295/45/18...

    Quarter glass? AMD not good.

    So, due to an accident of not-my-own-making, I've had to find new driver-side quarter window glass for my 67 Satellite 2dr hardtop. I first tried AMD, but their glass has the wrong front-to-back curvature and will only work as a hole-filler, not as a working window. I've now ordered a window...
