OH...well if you are referring to the 300, that was a return to history as well. I dont 100% sure know about some later models, but for sure the '55 Chrysler 300 had a clock on the dash! LoL

What else ya got?

OK...THAT I'll give you! LoL. Their tradition of having an analog clock is not special in the fact that its not new. However, it is their idea to create a tradition of following in the footsteps of other great luxury brands...which makes them special! LoL Its two sides to the same coin

Pics of the Robot mentioned above and Yes I will take almost any more useful Thingambob than the clock as I never look at IT for the time.

Even a nice plated Badge would do well for me....maybe a Punisher logo or my rocket launcher control switches

Install a nitrous kit, remove the clock and have a red button that says "C-ya" on it. LoL

Having the clock may not exactly be a "UNIQUE" tradition but it is a tradition...... think about it, during the holidays a TON of families have traditions of having a ham, singing christmas carols, or even more common putting up Christmas trees.... A lot of people do it but it doesnt mean its not a tradition. Just my $.02.

The clock at 45 seconds is the reflection off of something. At 3 minutes you can see it's still gray

I guess traditions in auto manufacturing is a fleeting thing. I, for one, think it’s a shame.

Ford has done everything to the Mustang except completely copy the 67-70 body styles. I wish they would quit messing with it and do just that. The old bodies with new tech chassis and engines. Dodge is almost there with the Challenger.
