Faceplate & Handles for Audio Research Classic 60

Hey does anyone know if it's possible or where I can obtain a new faceplate and/or handles for my Audio Research Classic 60? I've spent the last couple of days searching everywhere. The face plate isn't all that bad of shape but my handles got scratched when I was stupid enough to slide it while having it upright adjusting the bias & checking the servos.

I'll take the silver or black either one.

I'm thinking if I can't find the faceplate at least maybe the handles would be for sale somewhere.

If not I'll try to lightly buff the scratches out of the handles and repaint them.

Faceplate is currently the silver one and it might be able to be cleaned up some too but I didn't want to risk damaging it even worse.

Anyway thanks.

I'd think Audio Research have them available.

Otherwise heres something that might work, example is a 4.5" handle but other sizes are available too

Keystone Handle

Best of Luck

Post a "wanted" ad here on AudiogoN. I've had
great success with that tactic.

Try: FrontPanelExpress.com for the faceplate.
They can reproduce your faceplate or customize one to your design. Although I haven't done business with them their services do look interesting.

I have some good news. I took the face plate off and to the kitchen sink where I scrubbed with a sponge and Comet cleanser.

It worked it looks almost new. Very nice.

So now I only have to worry about the handles. I'll check the link.

Thanks
