1966 coronet parts wanted

[696pack]

Well, you believe what ya want...parts books state the same part number...we got an 8,000 mile original WO Coronet up here, radio delete plate and heater delete plate have the same Chrysler part number on them.

The factory took the radio plates and machined them down to make the heater plates

I know we are talking about 66 & 67, I have both....there is a guy up here in Washington reproducing both.

I direct you to this new thread on this subject http://www.forbbodiesonly.com/moparforum/showthread.php?t=2441

From the pictures I don't see HOW you could machine a radio plate to make what is pictured, which has what appears to be a molded lip around the entire rear of the plate.

I am not arguing that both plates may have the same part number (could have been a manufacturing error.) As you can clearly see in my picture of both plates installed, that the lower radio plate comes up over the angled split line in the dash. How could you cut it down to size for the heater control plate and still have the molded rear edges?
