TorqueFlite Push Buttons Available Now!

[Faulkner]

Spectacular reproduction 1959 Plymouth TorqueFlite buttons available now!

In 1959 Plymouths, transmission pushbuttons were illuminated via a clear plastic window in the instrument housing. For this to work effectively, the plastic that the buttons were made from needed to be transparent, and - to survive decades of use - needed to be strong, given that their complex shape can result in stress fractures.

Unfortunately, the clear plastic ink that is used in 3D printers in order to meet the transparency requirement, does not meet the strength requirement. The result is brittle, and the buttons easily fracture. However - Dick Koch has perfected a technique using epoxy resin that perfectly mimics factory originals! This technique also eliminates the tiny bubbles that might otherwise be visible and detract from the appearance, given the requirement for transparency.

That is great news for a lot of '59 Fury owners. Fortunately mine are still okay.
