Haroldh Grease Monkey Registered: 06/28/10 Posts: 21 Loc: North East, Ga	I have a 1946 Chevy P.U. radio Model 985792. Can anyone tell me why the face plates (covers dial & knobs) were different colors. The cab interiors were all the same color. I have a near Burgundy one and a nearly Brown one. I have seen Ivory color on some on Ebay. The Push Buttons & Dials are Ivory on both of my sets, so why the different color covers? Harold Edited by Haroldh (03/17/11 05:42 PM)

This same color combination was also used in the larger radios. _________________________ RAY Member Chat Group - Non-Geographical Region Chevradioman http://www.vccacolumbiariverregion.org/ If I had known that growing old would be this much fun---I'd have done it sooner!
