Looking for an Air Chief Radio fascia. Do not want to split a working system. Only need the fascia. Control knobs would be nice but not essential. Not an easy request but willing to give it a go.

I have a LH radio knob for FC radio- the one that is combined front and back. The Rh knob is a 2 piece knob and the LH knob is one piece.

Thanks Ken. No need for the radio knob. I think I will just get a metal fascia.

Ok, I have an AWA chrome metal front for FC. I will try to post a pic...

Arnt they made of bakelite originally?
Air Chief ones are black bakelite. AWA had a chromed metal fascia more like the blanking plate it replaces.
They're not really interchangeable - the Air Chief ones only suit the radio made for Holden by Astor, and marketed under that name. The AWA ones suited their own radios, although these are probably more easily repurposed to suit other brands and models.
Thanks guys
