I'm actually with Roe on the golden superlead backplates, I would drill those myself.

Check me if i'm wrong please... aren't the faceplates for 50w and 100w 67-68 era identical? If so I could use 4. As for 50W backplates, i guess I'll have to see if there's enough demand otherwise i'll try to just source those myself.

basically I have two 100w chassis and two 50w chassis to outfit.

Sparky, I'll PM with detail soon.

Cheers!

Paul

I'd be a buyer for a '68 100w front & back. Timetable is a couple weeks out for me. Gotta purchase iron and valvestorm guts next.

I'm still secretly hoping that someone who's done the period correct templates before will chime in... otherwise it will have to be a "from scratch" adventure for me.

I think some of us need the gold back plate for our new metro 100w 67/68 chassis. :drool:
The front plate is no problem (sparky or ceriatone.)

I have two loose plexi rears, one of Georges and a repro.

I can lend someone both if they want to copy them but I need them back!

I I were going to draw up some back panels, it would be helpful to have some photos of the versions people are looking for.

Sparky...how many confirmed units would you need for a run of 12xxx back plates (as per BLOOZE's post) would you need to take this on?
