'Thrift Air' Control Knob Bezel

I've got what is refered to as the Thrift Air heater. It has the single control knob that you turn for fan speed control and pull for the temp. Is the Bezel that surrounds the knob reproduced anywhere? Mine is in bad shape and I've tried to rework it a little but its still not what I'd like...

I haven't found one anywhere, I needed one for the '65 I restored since it was bent and faded. I ended up having to straighten and polish it since I couldn't find one.

Re: 'Thrift Air' Control Knob Bezel

I found one tonight while digging for other stuff. I'm more surprised that I found this thread again. I remember someone asking about it but couldn't remember who. If you still need one let me know. It's yours for the asking.
