Rally clock knob
Anyone know how to get this off without destroying it?
I believe it unscrews from shaft. Is that correct?  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Hold the shaft securely with a pair of GOOD longnose pliers and unscrew it.

Those old GM clock set-knobs are threaded on there 9 ways to Sunday, and they are meant to stay in place for the "normal" 12 to 15 year life span of the car and never come loose.
After 54+ years in one place very often that knob is going to be VERY difficult to remove w/o damaging either the chrome knob or the set stem or both.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
