Note: You need to be real careful when applying them with contact cement, because if you position them wrong, you will not get them off without destroying them! Quote:

Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
If you were running air bags, then control switches would be my guess. No matter what though, they will match your heater controls, and look cool as hell !!!

Now, I didn't even think about the controls for them! Nice one Murph!...Nah, I'm just making up some SPARES, as they could probably work pretty good as trading material. |

I hear ya on that. I like being different. Not too different, not the same. Guess different with a twist would say it best,,,, with a serious amount of bling added. However ya say it, You got it dude!!! |
Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
:agree: yeah, I like stuff that makes you look twice. Especially when you see something so original that it makes you glad you took the second look.
If that doesnt sound too weird. |

Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!

Really, I am overwhelmed with the response to these items! |
Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
Seriously, I think that everyone should PM me with what they would realistically spend if these items became available....Then I could better decide if they are worth producing, or not.

Ash tray knob $6.19 list, $4.95 sale. You figure 20% to 50% mark up for them being custom and aluminum would probably be in the more than fair bracket. Not sure how much time you have invested, or how much materiels cost, but probably in that ball park pretty easily. I know you said to PM you, but I thought the rationale was worth sharing. Me personally, and because it is to support a friend, I would pay upwards of $20-$30 for a set (plus shipping). I would sure like to hear what your average offer turns out to be though !! I like general concensus questions. |

thats about around the same price i was thinking, i seen aluminum dash knobs on $ebay for $10 each, and these are just made for are year trucks! i like the idea about the other knobs i seen these for the dash http://www.boeseengineering.com/deta...oduct_id=9700P and i'm thinking of buying them as well!! |

Of course you could give us all the brotherly love hommie discount..LOL |
Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
:agree: with everything above :clap:
Especially the package deal on all knobs! I hate stuff that does not match when doing builds like these. Am seriously happy to see you getting some feed back on this, glad you asked! |
Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
i too like the idea of matching up all the knobs, but what a hugh amount of work to make. billet stuff is cool but once you start the look, you want to keep adding pieces. most of the dash knobs are similar except the wiper/washer knob.
seems like i remember generic window and door handles that were billet and would fit... there may already be some dash knobs out there from rod and custom vendors. i would also like a set of heater and ashtray knobs, they are really nice. $75-$100... all polished out... seems real fair. |
Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
where do i send the check? man those are nice and would go great with my dash knobs........seriously where do i send the check:lol:awesome work as always.

Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!

Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!

Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
sorry the pictures arn't that great i will get some better ones soon, as you can see the dash is extremly nasty, the pollen here this year is terrible, i believe the worst i've ever seen.
