Little help?

Anyone know where to find a chrome or polished dash bezel for a 66?

They were not available in chrome from the factory and I am not aware of any aftermarket suppliers. I believe you will have to have one chromed or find someone with one, that has been chromed. I had one, but I put it in a cluster that I sold.

Thanks lilred66. Did you ever sell the tach dash, the one that had a clock? That dash was beautifull!

They can be polished, but they are cast, so I'm not sure how high the luster or shine will be and it will have to be clear-coated because the surface will oxidize over time.
