keiser31 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) Yep...looks to be 1936 passenger car item. 1937 may be similar. Edited March 4, 2015 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpage Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Definately '36 but may also fit '35-'37. I think they are nickle plated brass stampings. It would have been painted black with the raised lines buffed off to reveal the nickle plate. I think the button itself is standard for Dodge, Plymouth and DeSoto models of cars and trucks at the time with interchangeable caps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrenchguy Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 This is a 37 Plymouth I redid, It shows the ship horn button. I don't think it was stainless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpage Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 On one my '36 button caps, which is badly deteriorated , you clearly see the brass. On a Plymouth cover , you can see the brass under voids in the plating on the underneath side of the cover, also you can pick up the brass where the tabs have been broken off. There could have been some stainless caps made but I think most where brass stampings. All where painted over after plating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mikeburch Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Mine is, most definately, stainless.It is in better condition, than the photo shows. The sun was bright and coming in at an angle. The worse places are actually shadows. If anyone needs this, I can get a better photo.Thank you,mikeburch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
