68 Horn pad bezel
« on: July 11, 2017, 08:46:29 AM »
Most 68 horn pad bezels I have seen were chrome like the instrument bezel. I found one that is satin chrome, it is the same part number but the number is in a different place.
The six round bezels on the center pad are argent and the horn ring is satin chrome. Was ford going the satin direction?

Marty I have found the satin ones as well but don't have an explanation for them. Maybe we should track production dates?

Yes have also noticed the difference - possibly a second or third supplier

Never paid enough attention or mattered at the moment to record and try and establish a pattern for usage
