Some trinkets that were sold by some Vette parts place. Take them to a jewler and see what the silver value might be. Dennis

They sure are pretty. You might consider attaching another '63 to them.

There not rusted there just age pitted from ink markes in wrapping them for 30 years. A magnet will not stick to them so I'm not sure

When my dad was stationed in the southeast Asia/Pacific region there were many little shops who would make anything for you----and they did a nice job.

One of dad's co-workers was assigned at Clark AFB in the Philippines. He had one shop hand make a set of tail light housings for his '63 out of stainless. They were beautiful and fit perfectly.

Maybe a PO of your '63 was overseas?
