Subject: Re: Black or Chrome Instrument Bezels?
About 16 years ago I had to find replacement gauges for my 2 Litre. It had returned from 35 years in USA with some interesting BMC gauges and a temp gauge from an autoclave manufacturer! In my research over a period of a couple of years, I photographed numerous 1931-2 2 and 3 Litre dash panels. Some very original panels, some fully restored. I only spotted one that had gone down the chrome bezel route and have to say it looked a bit 'show car' but was part of an impressive restoration. I went for satin black as being period and actually saved me money in the instrument restoration department
