1959 Dynamic Oldsmobile Bezels

Hello all,

I'm hoping to find a pair (only need two, not four) of headlight bezels from a 1959 dynamic oldsmobile. These are very simple 5 1/2" headlamp bezels that have the same shape all the way around (rather than the top being wider than the bottom for example). These bezels attach to individual headlamp buckets rather than the dual buckets found on most four-headlight late 50s/early 60s autos.

Here's an image of a 1959 headlamps if that helps ...

If anyone knows of any other olds that sport a similar bezel, that would be helpful as well.

Thanks in advance,

- Dave

If you mean just the outer ring then be aware that the 98 uses a chromed headlight ring as pictured. The Dynamic and Super 88 used an aluminum ring. I was told a chevy from the same year uses this ring but that I am not sure of.

Thanks for the info. Yes, the one i have is definitely chrome. I'll check out some chevys from the same year to see what I can find. Thanks for the tip.

The '59 and '60 88's are the same. These are anodized aluminum, not chrome. That pic you provided is from a 98
