    Wondering if anyone has one they would be willing to part with? The silver, kind-of aluminum-looking piece that is screwed to the front of the factory radio.

    Thanks

    Hey Geno! Here's what I'm looking for. The "faceplate" I guess for lack of a better term. The ribbed part behind the knobs and around the push ****ons(has the black electrician's tape on it). It screws to the radio itself and comes off I believe, though I haven't tried mine yet.

    Let me look in my shop attic, I think I remember one in a box up there. I've got about 50 boxes full of stuff that needs to be gone through from the past 40 years. I could build a complete 65 Olds 442 if I had a basic body and frame minus the front end clip!!!!
