New here w/q's re: Replacing '66 car radio pushbuttons
#5

HI:
Being a Mustang, there might be replacement push buttons , try someone who sell Mustang parts, For your conectors ,have you a local junk yard? most likely any Ford product built around mid 60's will have the conectors your looking for , I have NOS conectors for 1950's Fords but I know they are different , If you can not find any let me know ,and I'll check out my junk , most of the work I do now is on 40's to 72, Chevy +GMC truck radios ,I work for a parts supply for vintage GM trucks, I did a month ago a 51 Ford radio[BENDICS] at that time Ford had three suppliers ,Bendics, Motorola and Zenith, no Philco that I know of , all though Philco did supply Ford in the 1930's , On your chips if they are not too deep you can sand them out with a coarse sand paper and go to a fine then finish off with brasso, but first try to see if repoductions are available
