‘55 pontiac interior: green glass knobs

February 8, 2006

I have previously shown the construction of new door panels for my ‘55 candian pontiac. I like the theme of having a scary outside and a classy interior. I found these green glass knobs at Dixon’s Auction in Crumpton, MD (nice story on a recent “Antiques Roadshow FYI, Program 124 | Premiered Wednesday, August 24, 2005). They’re really just drwer pulls, I drilled out the rivets that held on the stock plastic knobs and attached these with stainless screws and nylock nuts.

I think they match the color of the carpet nicely. But why glass? To match the antique door knob I found for a 4 speed shifter knob (for a later post).
