1968 Dodge Charger Dash Assembly (B-Body)

The 1968 Dodge Charger stands as a towering figure in the pantheon of American muscle cars, embodying the raw power, sleek design, and thrilling performance that enthusiasts crave. A key element of its allure lies within the cockpit, particularly the dash assembly of the B-Body model, which combines functionality with iconic style. This article delves into the essence of the 1968 Dodge Charger's dash assembly, highlighting its significance and the nuances that make it a collector's dream.

The Heart of the Muscle Car Experience

The dash assembly in the 1968 Dodge Charger B-Body is more than just a control panel; it's the nerve center of the vehicle, offering drivers a direct connection to the car's roaring engine and spirited dynamics. It encapsulates the essence of the 1960s automotive design ethos, characterized by clean lines, ergonomic placement of gauges, and a focus on driver engagement.

Restoration and Customization

Restoring or customizing a 1968 Dodge Charger dash assembly requires attention to detail and authenticity. Enthusiasts and restorers seek out OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts to maintain historical accuracy, from the wood grain finish on certain models to the specific font used on the gauges. The restoration community has seen a surge in the availability of reproduction parts, making it easier to bring these classic dashboards back to their original glory.

Customization allows owners to infuse modern technology into their Charger's dash, with upgrades like LED gauge lights, digital screens disguised as analog gauges, and integrated sound systems that don't detract from the classic look and feel of the dashboard.

This custom Dodge Ram dash is a restoration of an original dash. These dashes are notorious for having brittle plastic and breaking apart in the truck. Unfortunately, once they get that bad there isn’t too much Just Dashes can do. But Just Dashes has created an off shelf solution so our customers can buy these dashes from us directly. Using NOS Dodge dashes we are able to add the 3 gauge pods and reinforce the entire structure with dash vinyl using our thermo-vacuum forming process. By thermo-vacuum forming dash vinyl over the whole structure it ensure the longevity of the plastic shell and prevents any future cracking. Best of all, it looks and feels like hard plastic when it’s done and you’ve got extra space for more gauges!

These are made to order, so are still subject to our current lead times. If you are interested in purchasing one, pleasecall us at (800) 247-3274.
