But on the 71SSs i have to check, i know the 2 with black interior have black columns and wheels. On the sandalwood interior Tom and Kevin are saying it should be black but i have to check tomm and let you guys know for sure. Joe i am crying i am laughing so hard!!! Ok i checked on the last 71SS that has sandalwood interior, it has a black column and a black wheel. However its the wrong wheel, it has a wheel in black like the pic Dennis put up and i know she is supposed to have a black NK4 according to the build sheet if i remember correctly. Bottom line Tom and Kevin are correct!!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This question perplexed me so I tried to research it and I still don't know 🙃 But I did run across 2 (one pictured) where the gauges arent chrome trimmed. So I'll ask the experts why not. Was it an option ? I know before I got it the front turn signal lenses where amber (el camino) because nobody had the clear glass during the rebuild.

Well, the pic is a hodge podge Mark. Lol. 71 steering wheel and 70 headlight knob. BUT if you look close to the right side turn signal indicator you can see the remnants of the chrome surrounding it. It was probably worn off during many years of cleaning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s interesting you noticed that. The only thing not chrome trimmed on my 71 is the turn signal indicators, the high beam and the break light indicator. Other 71s I’ve looked at aren’t trimmed either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the factory those 4 smaller circles were not chrome. All other guages had the chrome. It was not optional. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
