Title: 1969 Scotr Drake Clock and Dash Bezel Quality
Post by: Sulphur1 on April 11, 2025, 10:45:37 PM

Hi guys my dash bezels are both in bad shape and restoration in Australia starts around $Au1100 each. Vinyl is only repo. Purchasing any original ends up towards $2000+ landed, freight being bad.
Scott Drake seems better value if ok.
Appreciate comments on both clock  and instrument bezels including the wood grain.

Can?t tell you about the Scott Drake parts, but I?ve got mine from NPD (ACP Brand) and they look very nice. Would always change them as a pair though to prevent differences of the woodgrain....

My original gauges and woodgrain. Repo bezel with the wide chrome band painted over to match original finish. No issues with the base bezel so far.

Scott Drake repo woodgrain I have here in Australia, if you like these I?ll sell them at half new price to you. As you see they are dark.
