NC WTT 67-68 Speedwarning

[71 super]

I have a speedwarning cluster with tach backing plate - the tach works. The speedalert was restored by PT's Customs and included the original wiring harness and buzzer. I am not interested in selling this unit and really dont want it to go but my "TRIMPARTS" tailgate band is not cutting it on the 4x4 and I would like to trade the speedalert for a perfect NOS tailgate band and some boot- boot can be in form of other NOS small pieces or $150 cash- that is figuring the band at a value of $200 and assuming it is a late band with the plastic letters. PM me if interested please, thank you, Harold

Harold, what is wrong with the new repop bands? Is it just the woodgrain pattern on the applique? I just like knowing what parts are good. Thanks Trevor

Trevor, I thought it was a nice piece when it came out of the box, in fact it looked just like the NOS unit on my 71, until I sprayed off the 4x4 tailgate to clean the dust and buff material off. It was then that the black began to buckle and wrinkle a peel. I dont want to slam a product especially one that was supposed to be made in USA but a new part that was $180 should not do that. I am afraid though that they are going to balk since I have owned the part for nearly 2 years waiting on the truck to get painted. I guess that is what for stock piling so I will have everything when paint is complete.
