Re: [FWDLK] 55 Plymouth Clock

[Robert Bishop <bishop@FRONTIERCOM.BC.CA>]

Hi Jack,

I have the installation instructions that came with my NOS '55 Plymouth dash
clock.  This is a single page published by MoPar in Sep-54.  It shows that
the red wire comes off the ammeter (to power the clock), black wire comes
off the instrument panel switch (for the light in the clock) and the yellow
wire is a ground.  It also has a diagram showing how to locate and drill the
mounting holes.  I can mail you a photocopy if you like.
