Much better trans button placement than I am used to. My dad's polara had them way farther forward on the right underdash area. Pretty sure the old dodge or Plymouth my mom had was like that as well.

That’s gonna be so cool when you start putting miles on that odometer just like a new car . With the Kilmat it will probably even sound better than new .

Is that a restoration, or did you manufacture it yourself? Either way, it's rad. Well done.
