This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy..

65 Radio Bezel -Rare Factory 2 Piece

Discussion in 'Parts for sale' started by RockFrisco, Dec 27, 2008.

    I've got some 64 Convertible & 65 HT parts that have been in storage since 1984 that I'm prepping 4 Sale on eBay, (eBay User ID:FirstUpFront).

    I'll load several pix of what may be a rare factory 2-Piece Radio Bezel Set-UP, the fwd Bezel being for no/AC, yet the Main Dash Frame mounted Bezel is for both AC & no/AC.

    Included will be a couple pix of what the old stock AM Radio looks like when mounted.

    I'm willing to separate these for a sale as I'll be doing any way when posting them on eBay. Looking to get somewhere around $150 or best offer for both plus shipping of your choice "cost only".

    Cheers & Happy New Year to all!

    Here's a couple more pix below. One shows what a similar front bezel that is set up for AC looks like mounted up. The other Pic simply shows the common bezel usually seen with a no/AC set up.

    Tell me about it. I've spent several hours Googleing the research on this set up and have not been able to get any hits on the PN. It's been since 1984 that I put it all up in storage and wished I had tagged it if it came out of the 64 Convertible or 65 HT.

    Thanks to V8Buick though I was able to find the above photo of the w/AC bezel.

    I doubt that those 2 piece bezels are all that rare, since I have two sets of them in my basement. They are 64 items. The very bottom one pictured is for a 65.

    I believe they were put in cars that were factory prepped for A/C. My 64 HT has that cover along with the apropriate holes for installing the A/c unit in the firewall. All 64 dashes were 2-piece, but many of them had the grille design above the radio too. I suspect that at least all of the Fremont cars were prrepped that way, but it may have been done based on destination (my car was shipped to a dealer in Reno, NV). I would not call it valuable either, just "different."
