1969 Camaro Clock Adjustment Knob - LOCATED!

[Edgemontvillage]

Looking for a detail part for my 1969 Camaro (dash cluster mounted) clock, a mint or NOS <span style="font-weight: bold">clock adjustment knob</span>. The NOS versions I have seen on-line have only a partially fluted body and are incorrect. Its probably too small to have re-chromed. <span style="font-weight: bold">Please PM if you can help. </span>

Eddie, I checked this morning and can't determine if the knob is plastic or metal (without destroying it). Its lightweight however hollow. Considering the force required to pull the adjustment stem and rotate the gear mechanism I'd say it could be metal?

metal we can get it rechromed - my guy here does a lot of very small intricate plating for me for the ferrari

I checked my stash. Mine must be 70-72 as they are missing the flutes...

Np, I have another tub of clocks I need to dig out. If I have another it will be on a clock, I'd gladly part with it.

Steve, please have a look and if you can locate is a nice adjustment knob let me know.

I located a NOS clock knob PN# 3794017 which decodes as a Corvette part however is exactly the same size and with the same fluting detail as the original. <span style="font-weight: bold">A shout-out to SYC member BILLOHIO </span>for his help with this search. Lloyd.
