Chrome on Nova Dashes?

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

I think that too was part of our conversation the other night, but we're not sure why some of the '69's and '70's received it around the speedo and outer edge.

Mark's green interior example really puts a hole in the theory! What year is that green car, is it a '71 or '72?

This is all very interesting. Here one of my old 70's it had 30,000 miles,non SS 307 custom int, with air. it has the speedo chrome.m

OK,

Here is what I have so far. It is far from scientific yet. I searched 1970 V8 VINs backwards. I stopped at Marks L78. I only looked for Speedo Chrome. I found 37 out of a few 100 cars with speedo chrome. Most had poor quality pictures or no picture of the bezel.

37 cars had a picture of the dash good enough to tell the bezel had chrome around the speedo.

4 had standard door panels. 33 had custom interior door panels. 20 of the 33 had original door panels. The tach/clock options were about 50% of these. All but three of the custom had pedal trim. These cars were mixed original and questionable originality.

I still have to find out how many cars with custom interior did not have the speedo chrome. It will be late next week before I can go through all of the records.

Interior Convenience Package - RPO ZJ3 and was to have Bright pedal trim and Bright framing on instrument cluster carrier. I think this was ZJ3 on 68 - 69 cars. ZL3 on 70 cars. Again based on the limited FB build sheets in the database. Any one have a FB build sheet marked different?

It would help if some of the examples pictured here can make it into the database. Especially the anomalies.

Who do you all recommend to do the dash chrome?
