WTB: Radio block off plate (Bronze color) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Joesjunk** · 11-17-2004, 04:18 AM

I am looking for a radio block off plate for the 71 1 ton I just got. It must be metalic Bronze color with good original paint. I know it is a long shot, but I though I would try. I have block off plates, but don't want to paint one if I don't have to. Here is the color, Thanks!!

elk hunter · 11-17-2004, 12:33 PM

i may have that for you... buddy runs a wrecking yard, and i pulled one out and put it on a shelf. ill check today.

**Joesjunk** · 11-17-2004, 01:17 PM

Thanks for checking. Just let me know if you find it.

elk hunter · 11-17-2004, 04:37 PM

Slammed67 · 11-17-2004, 05:09 PM

Jason

**Joesjunk** · 11-18-2004, 04:40 AM

Thanks, Joe

teeitup · 11-18-2004, 08:53 AM

elk hunter · 11-18-2004, 12:29 PM

**Joesjunk** · 11-18-2004, 01:46 PM

Elk, You can email pics to me at N2TRUCKS72@aol.com

Randy, I have some different colored ones, I was just looking to see if I could get an original painted one. Thanks anyway.

Slammed67 · 11-19-2004, 12:29 AM

Joe, looks like the one I have is more of a red color unless your pics are deceiving......

**Joesjunk** · 11-19-2004, 04:08 AM

Jason, Thanks for looking. That does look like a red color. I think your buddy

in Raytown might have one.
Thanks , Joe

Be sure to check for Bondo!

Joe, something you may not have thought about, paint the glove box door, ash tray and radio delete plate black. It makes finding the parts easy (who cares if it is purple...it'll be black soon) and IMO it looks better becouse it ballances out the dash.

Here is a crappy pic...but you get the idea.

Just in case you hadn't thought of it.

Thanks, not a bad idea. If the truck didn't have such nice paint inside I could think about that. It does balance out the dash. I am going to try to keep it as original as I can though.
Thanks for the idea though!!!

Longhorn Man · 11-19-2004, 04:13 PM

I inda figured the original thing would get in the way.
I've been in this truck so long with the black glove box that a body colored one looks funny to me now.

GMC AMI · 11-19-2004, 09:24 PM

Anyone want to list a price for one of these please, color not important. I would buy two if there is a quantity discount,lol.

A few 72's · 11-21-2004, 02:48 AM

Thanks for the info!

Not a problem.
Seen where Mike had asked so thought there may have been others looking also, so just posted what I found. If I had seen a bronze one I would have sent a PM.

Thank you a few 72's, I have been watching eBay and I thought when I mentioned wanting to buy a couple that someone on board would have posted a price since this is a parts for sale board.
