Confused about slab-era upper control arm splash shield

[MoPar~Man]

I have in my parts inventory this used splash shield:

It's made from cord re-inforced rubber, smooth on both sides. There are 2 explanations for this item - that it's an actual OEM splash shield, or I cut it from a sheet of rubber using an actual OEM shield as a template. It would have been for a '67 Monaco. I've only ever owned or collected parts for '65 and '67 C-body. There are no holes for clips along the bottom edge. There are tears and likely pieces missing.

Detroit Muscle Technology shows this for a '65-'68 C-body:

And they show this for '69 - '71

So according to them, what I have matches '69 - '71. I'm stumped why I would have it. So I'm looking for a reality check as to what pattern would be correct for 1967.

Which one actually fits your car the best?

For my '67 300, I ordered the following from DMT:

Mopar C Body 65-68 Chrysler A Arm Splash Shield Set

Detroit Muscle Technologies, LLC Mopar restoration gaskets

www.detroitmuscletechnologies.com

They matched the originals well. The two big pieces fit over the upper control arm, and the two smaller pieces fit around the front sway bar.

Hope this helps.

:shrug: the DMT 65-68 is the correct fit one, i also have them.

I suppose the OEM one you traced out was just a rogue Fusie part that somewhere along the line got the reputation as a 67 slab part. ;)

I ordered the 65-68 but found I did have to do a little trimming to get it to fit like I wanted on my 67 300. Cam shaft
