Restorer32 Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Anyone know if the dash knobs on this car are supposed to be plated or were they originally a bakelite like material? I would assume that being an open car the knobs would be plated but not sure. On the '32s they were plated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 JeffI'm almost positive that they're the same as 1930: Orangish marbelized bakelite. I see some reproduction knobs that are ivory, but I don't think they're correct for anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbirdman Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I concur, definitely not plated like the 32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Peterson Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Yeah, but they're ivory. I'm pretty sure ivory is incorrect. I have one on my desk and its a marbelized orange color. Looks almost opaque orange, but if you look closely, it's marbelized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
