I bought a original dash frame to replace the chopped-up fiberglass/bondo mod dash that's in my 72 duster. When I pulled out the gauge carrier, it's too small to fit in the dash. I have a non-rallye cluster and I bought a non-rallye dash (so I thought?)

Can anybody tell me what I have and If I can fix this without getting a different frame? Is there a different cluster I can put in?



Thanks!

I don't know all the dash frames "by appearance" but my guess is that you have a Dart non Ralley dash, cluster as:

Yep that's a pre '70 Valiant/Dart non ralley dash frame, a few of them found their way into some early '70 cars too.

Thanks,

I've read that to switch a non-ralley to a ralley is a nightmare and very expensive. How difficult and expensive will it be to change to this '69 non-ralley setup? Wiring nightmare?

I have done the swap to a ralley, if you can find one complete with harness, frame and cluster it's pretty much plug and play.

I think I'm just going to fab up a bezel and go with individual gauges. New Vintage has some nice choices. I really don't want to use the aftermarket mod dash frame I have, and the new frame is in great condition, but I don't really care for the '69 gauge setup... Decision time I guess.
