They’re not for everyone - but I like the nostalgic look of cowl gauges, and I like being different and unique. Just about finished up - some finishing touches needed yet.
Took some small threaded rod and some small round stock and welded them together to fit between the cowl vents - then...
Is it from a 1964-1966 Chrysler Imperial? Rooflines and body shape much different from earlier models (plus they are full-framers), 67-68 much different with a sub-frame, then 69 up they want round body with sub-frame. I recognize the rear emblem you posted from a 64-66.

Sounds good about the steering column. I know about the flaming river setup but I think you’re right about finding an original...
Aside from obtaining a center console and all the pieces (and modifying the actual steering column to get rid of the column shifter) - does anyone know if anyone repos the correct brackets that are welded to the floor? 67 Coronet R/T.
I know this conversion is completely unnecessary, just...
Thanks guys. First time doing body work on a muscle car. Have done lots of welding and fixing you could say. But first timer here.

Had a few spots down low that had some cracks - which I could tell was bondo from previous owner.
Car still looked good (not a show car by any means) but decided to start chipping away at it. Literally and figuratively. More rust and bondo than I thought and was hoping once I started to get...
So in essence - I could shop for a 66/67 coronet, Belvedere, satellite, or gtx hood and it should all fit? Not concerned about dodge emblems or anything like that - going to be adding my custom hood scoop to it - don’t want to go the Fiberglass route, and want to keep my original hood in-tact.
Aside from the non-functional hood scoop on the 67s - are the 66 and 67 holds the same as far as measurements and fitment? Needing to find a second hood for my 67 R/T.
Thanks!
I’ve raised the torsion bars a bit since this pic so the stance has changed some. Car had 275s in the rear but on 14 inch rims wanted to be safe with the 255s based on other members recommendations.
