Interesting Fremont oddity or not??
Yesterday I was told by someone in the know that 65s built in Fremont had the upper part of the instrument cluster plastic housing painted the same color of blueish gray as the 64s did between the ribs on dash trim and console top. I'm speaking of the area where the speaker switch is mounted. To my knowledge, all were the non glare black, both top and bottom, all plants. Definitely different to me!!
Would anyone having a Fremont built 65 original or survivor please check this painted area above the gauges to see what color it is painted. THANKS "Bill"! |

Hi Keith. I don't know why your post did not show up here, but I did receive it in my email.
Anywho, the 65 I'm referring to was built 12C, at Fremont. Thanks "Bill"! Do you know when the car was built (what month)? Early in the model year? K This is what Keith replied but has not showed up YET.. |

Thanks. I removed it when it seemed you were asking in general rather than about a specific car.
So - in either case - not an early build. K

Here is an Original 12A Fremont build ‘65 Convertible.
Dash bezel looks to have a BLACK surround to me where the optional switches would mount. |
