60-66 factory clock pics?

[1963c-10]

you might consider using an ashtray faceplate from a 60-63. they are alot easier to come by. for some reason, delete plates get scarse.

I think DTKarst is just teasing us showing us that clock....but if he has no use for it I got $50 burning a hole in my pocket! LOL

Well I have a 61 K10 thats a pretty base truck that I thought about using it on but I plan on doing a factory correct restoration and it owuld seem out of place on it in my opinion.

Well, the nice thing is that it was a factory option or could be dealer installed. So if its period correct than it wouldn't be out of place. It'll take me a few days to get use to it. Ive been driving a 63 since i was 15, and we've always had 1st gen's around since I was a kid. 1st one w/a clock though. Just so use to the empty dash....but its growing on me.

on 65 66 clocks they made to types one with rhe chrome ring around the clock face and one with no chrome . some thimk the non chrome was for the truck , but i think it does not matter just a change in mfg. mike top has chrome bottom no chrome hard see with reflection

I think both look good. Unless your going to a concourse show where they are judging 100%, I wouldn't really worry about it.

looks good. As I have stated early, if anyone has one in decent shape at a good price, I'm interested in it. Don't care if it's a fawn or black one!

Evan your looking for the 64-66 clock? Ill keep my eyes peeled. Saw one on scam bay awile back for like $450. I have seen the 60-63 style clocks go for as little as $75 (in original box a few months ago...was shocked that $75 bought it) to as high as $800. Some of these things get pretty pricey.

I will take any 60-66 dash clock in decent shape for the price that one sold ($75) for or less! As long as everything is there & hopefully works. doesn't have to be 64-66. I actually might even like the 60-63 like yours best, as that's the kind I seen in a junkyard when I was just a kid.

That seems to be the million dollar problem. The clocks pop up, but rarely do I see them go for $75. I would have bought the other won for that had I been keeping an eye on it. I do see them regularly go for around $125. Keep tabs on ebay for corvair clocks...best source Ive found yet for clocks.

[1963c-10]

These are two others Id look at for installing. Both are 63 models. The first is part #985581 and its for the chevy II, the second is part # 985348 and it was used on the bel air, impala & biscayne. Both should be around the same size as they were made for clusters.

[1963c-10]

One of these on ebay for $899. Way too much in my opinion even if its new in the box.

ok, I'll keep a look out. If you do happen to see one for a good price, let me know. preferably the one like yours or the black 64-66 one.

That Chevy II model looks like it just may be the ticket. I'll keep an eye open.

Thank you!

if you can find one online through a company catalog, have them measure it for you.

Ill keep my eyes open for you. Be sure to check any corvairs that may be in your local yards also.

there's not hardly any 60's vehicles in the salvage yards around here, if they are, they're stripped. I have been doing some searches through different craigslists for corvairs & such...nothing yet. I've even done the carpart.com fill out form. I had one salvage yard call me that said they had several, but a week later they said it was too rough to mess with. I told them I could make one out of two, but never heard back.

I appreciate it, if you run across one in decent condition at a reasonable price, I'll likely take it...thanks

[1963c-10]

there is a nos one on ebay, but its pricey. nice thing about oem unused, you should get plenty of years of use out of it & all parts are there
