ID 1966-70 pedal firewall plastic
Continuing to sort 66-67 parts collection.
Found different firewall pedal plastic pieces.
All are slightly different. Just wanting to ID application before listing.
Thanks

Do the firewall plates have numbers molded into the backs of them? The 1967 window cranks are unique and one-year-only. Note in the lower RH corner of your photo that the dark colored ***** are 1967 window cranks. The yellowed clear **** is 1968-up. The 67 cranks have flatter ***** and thinner arms on the metal part.

Thank you Joe P for the window crank ID help.

To add to a little more information, the reason for the change in 67 was that 64 - 66 simply used a rubber sleeve to support the column in the metal firewall mounting plate. 67 was the first year to use a "split-plate" that clamped the column to the firewall (part of the safety improvements in 67 so that the column would collapse in the event of a front end collision). The lower triangulated section on the plastic cover is there to provide clearence for the lower clamping bolt.
