64 coupe clock

[Robert V.]

Is the lens for the 64 coupe clock supposed to be plastic or glass?

Re: 64 coupe clock

The 63-64 Judging Guide is pretty clear on this one....

"1963 - The lens of all gauges in the cluster are concave plastic..."

"1964 - The lens of all guages in the cluster are concave glass...."

Jack:

You are right about the cluster lenses, but the way I read that quote, there is no mention of the clock, which is not one of the gauges in the cluster. I don't know about 1963-4, but I can tell you that the clock lens in my '65 was rather badly scratched plastic, before I replaced it. The new lens (mfg. by Trim Parts") is plastic, like the original.
