Thanks to all those commenting on the obvious, Imfeel obliged to fix it.
After deleting the 90’s graffiti, it was obvious (was from the start really) that the parts to the left and right, through 33 years of wear and aging, could do with a colour match as well.
No idea how the plastics have gone yellow, but maybe GM had different suppliers for different pieces of trim, and as long as the exterior kinda matched….. we all know how often it does not even in new cars, it was fine for the production line.
In a commercial vehicle that was expected to do a 300k mile life in a few years, longevity was possibly less important than a “survivor” that after 33 years, still only had done 78k miles.
So as soon as I get time to disassemble these two panels, including the switches, buttons that run through them, they will be prepped and painted.
Friday, thank goodness.
Headed out to do some training at Woolwich today.
Then we can come home to play.
Later gang.
