1957 Instrument Bezel
Google and eBay have let me down... Or I just don't know what to search for. Anyone know where I can get one?

It's got nine bids too, if not bidders. Somebody wants it!

Don't some of the connections on the rear of the panel look kinda strange?

I bid on it until it hit $60. The board on the back is stamped 1960 or 61 I believe.

I was wondering the same thing. Did they actually have printed circuits on these?

That struck me too at first. Electronics were in transition by then, though, so pc boards weren't exactly exotic. It does look out of place somehow in a 60s pickup? Probably prone to the traces lifting and bad solder joints for all that, too.
