Kind of like the 5 pc dash bezel set that I just bought for a 1/4 the total cost that my father bought my '69 Bee for new off the show room floor.

If you need it, they know you'll spend it. There isn't much other option out there, like Legendary's $500 US Dash pad... only one that's correct (or so I hope, because the $300 one was junk!)

Let' not forget to move the decimal point one place to the left when comparing today's money to 1969 money.

We will never feel like prices are low. (even if they are).  Our sense of the value of the dollar get's stuck in our minds from some place in the past.

I have to do the math myself all the time and stuff still feels expensive.

OK--so I looked it up--- $6.66 today is the same as $1.00 in 1969.

$639.98 today would  be $96 in 1969. ---$24 ea for those trim rings in 1969.---

I hope someone will correct me on this (if needed) cause I don't do this math (even basic) stuff much anymore. It kinda hurts.
