Wanted Interior chrome - heater control, radio bezel, interior door handles

Does anyone have any extra heater control, radio bezel and interior door handles in good shape? They don't need to be perfect, but the ones I have are so bad the corrosion has broken through the chrome in many spots. Normally chrome cleans up pretty well with #0000 steel wool, but mine are too badly gone.

I know I can buy repros of all these, but I'd prefer factory original, even if not perfect. I'm not doing a concours restoration.

Thanks!

I think I can help with the heater panel & door handles. I'll verify tomorrow and let you know. Also, outside door handles? Instr bezel? Dash pad (repro)? Gas cap?

Well, I came up dry on the heater control panel. I do have a myriad of spare parts otherwise. If I can help, let me know.

Thanks Neil. I'm good on the other items you mentioned. Mine are still in decent shape or I have repros I bought a few years ago.

My front wing windows and rear quarter windows are also in bad shape (just the chrome is corroded, glass is fine)

I have a drive grade control panel. Good used wind wing chrome is tough to find. I have a number of them but all have some degree of pitting. PM me if I can help you.
