Rob M. has been helping me to decode what I should have as far as a speaker grill for my '59. Adam's book says that the 58 and 59 should not have a bezel, but just that the grill goes up from underneath by itself (I assume the dash vinyl wraps around the inside and the grill goes up through it). Rob sent me a pic of his '59 grill and he has a bezel. Did they start to use bezels in 59 or not? My car is a 69xx build. Should it have a bezel?
I notice in my Paragon catalogue (2002) they "advise using (a 1960-62 bezel) on 1958-59 when changing dash pads". Maybe it is tricky to to do a nice job of the pad around the speaker.
Please notice I have a very late '59-er and I found a lot of things are often been taken from the 1960 model on my car (e.g. like the pointy OIL/TEMP/FULE and AMP guages), rubber on the rear softtop bow, two tone paint in the trunk, etc.
greetings,
Rob.
PS The Turquoise mat and liner is on order and my wife will do the neccessary cleaning soon!
I still have a basic problem with my 59. I am about ready to install the bezel on it because I can't figure out how to attach the radio speaker to it and have it hold on. Just took my dash cover off and I have four holes surrounding the speaker grill hole.
Any suggestions????
Thanks,
Lee
