DESCRIPTION:  THESE ARE THE METAL CHROME COVERS OR BEZELS FOR THE TOP OF A 1963 STARFIRE SPORT CONSOLE.  ONE IS THE SURROUNDING TRIM FOR THE GEAR SHIFT, AND HAS THE SLOTS FOR THE OPTIONAL POWER WINDOWS.  THIS ONE IS RARE IN THAT IT HAS THE ADD'L SLOTS (FROM THE FACTORY) FOR THE POWER VENTS AS WELL (six total switches are mounted in it).  CUTOUTS ARE PRECISION MADE FROM THE FACTORY, AND DEFINITELY LOOKS IT.  THE OTHER TRIM PIECE (COVER) IS FOR THE "GLOVE" or LOCKING ACCESSORY STORAGE BOX FOR THE CONSOLE.  BOTH ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, AND ONLY NEED THE PLATING PROCESS TO BE COMPLETED.    THE GLOVE BOX COVER HAS SOME TEENY INDENTED HOLES IN IT.  I THINK THE PLATING PROCESS (NICKEL AND COPPER) WILL TAKE CARE OF SMOOTHING THAT OUT.   AT LEAST YOU CAN SEE RIGHT DOWN TO THE METAL, WITH NO POT-MARKED ROSE BUD PITS POPPING THROUGH THE CHROME (SO COMMON WITH NORTHERN, MIDWESTERN, MTN WEST, NORTHEASTERN AND SEABOARD CHROME PIECES ON THE STARFIRE).  THESE LONG PIECES WERE VERY CLEAN TO BEGIN WITH (BEFORE THE DE-PLATING PROCESS).  HARD TO FIND...    

SHIPPING/PACKING:  INSURANCE/VALUATION HAS ALREADY BEEN ADDED TO THE ROCK-BOTTOM SHIPPING QUOTE.  WHEN YOU SEE THE EFFORT I WENT THROUGH TO PACK THIS ORDER, YOU'LL THINK IT'S A BARGAIN.   I WILL COMBINE SHIPPING, IF ITEMS CAN BE SHIPPED TOGETHER SAFELY (by deducting approx. 50% of the lesser shpg cost for each additional item).  NOTE THAT EBAY’S SHIPPING CALCULATOR DOESN’T ADD THE EXTRA CHARGES IT COSTS ME FOR RESIDENTIAL DELIVERY, RURAL RESIDENTIAL, OUT-OF-SERVICE AREA, INSURANCE, AND FUEL SURCHARGE, AND I PAY A COMMISSION OUT OF THE SHPG PRICE.  SO I’M OFTEN UNDERSTATING THE ACTUAL OUT-OF-POCKET COST IN THE QUOTE.   ALSO, SOME PKGS ARE DIMENSIONALLY-WEIGHTED.   IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CALL ME AT ANYTIME: *619-442-2800.  PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE IF I CAN'T GET TO THE PHONE!  THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR BUSINESS & COOPERATION...

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:  WELCOME!   I HAVE REMOVED GLOBAL SHPG TO SAVE YOU SOME MONEY.  I TRULY BELIEVE THAT I COULD SEND IT CHEAPER W/O THE MIDDLE MAN.   I WILL SEND PHOTOS OF PACKAGING DETAIL (IF REQUESTED), AND I WILL CALL YOU BACK ON A LAND LINE (NOT MOBILE) PHONE NUMBER IF YOU PROVIDE ME WITH IT.  OR, EMAIL ME FOR MY LAND LINE PHONE NUMBER, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO CALL ME (IF IT IS CHEAPER THAN CALLING THE ABOVE MOBILE #).  BRIEF CALLS SAVE A LOT OF TIME (AND THE BACK & FORTH & DELAY OF NEVER-ENDING EMAILS, NOT TO MENTION SITTING & TYPING!).

FEEDBACK:  MY REWARD IS THE SATISFACTION OF HAPPY BUYERS, AND MY GOAL IS TO ACHIEVE 5 STAR RATINGS.  NOTE THAT THERE IS NO RATING FOR HOW WELL A BOX IS PACKED (CUSHIONED).   THAT IS WHERE I EXCEL.   IF THERE IS ANY DELAY IN SHIPMENT, PLEASE CONSIDER HOW WELL I PACKED THE ITEM(S), AND ALL THE HOURS I’VE SPENT.   I’VE BEEN KNOWN TO DOUBLE-BOX, USE DOUBLE-WALL BOXES, & WRAP THINGS 3 DIFFERENT WAYS.   IN NEARLY 35 YRS OF SHPG (OF EVERY VEHICLE PART AND/OR SHEET METAL/FRAME/BODY SECTION IMAGINABLE, AND WITH EVERY AIR OR GROUND CARRIER & TRUCKING FIRM YOU’VE EVER HEARD OF), I’VE RARELY EVER HAD A DAMAGED SHPMT!   I KINDLY & HUMBLY ASK THAT YOU LEAVE A RATING OF ***** (i.e., five stars) FOR THE 4 FEEDBACK PARAMETERS, IN CONSIDERATION OF HOW MUCH I WENT OUT OF MY WAY TO CAREFULLY PACK YOUR ITEM FOR ITS LONG JOURNEY!  IF SOMETHING ABOUT THE ITEM DIDN’T MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW ABOUT IT.  IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT THAT AN ITEM DID GET DAMAGED IN TRANSIT, I WILL FILE A CLAIM IMMEDIATELY.  THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR PATIENCE & COURTESY.
