Dash/Radio Bezel - 73 Convertible

[Moraga_Pulsar]

The woodgrain surround for the radio - mine was damaged oh maybe in the seventies or eighties (cut out to fit a non std radio).

Hello,

These bezels appear on eBay and other places fairly regularly. You can use the plates from and full size Buick '71-'73 although each year looks a little different.

The biggest hassle with these is the wide array of options.

1) With or without A/C (A/C bezels will have a small rectangular hole to the left of the vent for the on-off knob).

2) With or without the tripminder optional odometer.

3) The left panel can have a section for the defroster and convertible switches or not.

The panels held up fairly well in hardtops, but faded badly in the convertibles.

In your local hobby shop you can buy a pen with bright silver paint that is a good way to touch up the chrome trim.

Let us know what options you need and you'll have a better shot at getting what you need.


Good Luck,
John

Ditto on everything John said.... I bought mine on ebay. I can't recall, but I may have a spare. I'll check.

Hey John - why not add a picture of your car on your avatar?? Would love to see it.
In fact, all of you that have your ride pictured, should update and post. Love to see all these classics still chewing up asphalt!

I had my car in the avatar and it seems to have evaporated. I checked my profile and it's still there, but it's not showing on my posts.

I'll try deleting the current picture and reloading to see if it comes back.
