Hi rix66
This was discussed a few weeks ago. It seems that when the HJ was first released only the silver facia was made & this was fitted to any model that had the GTS instruments optioned. Some time during HJ they added black & timber-tone GTS style |

Hi Dr Terry, I believe in the HZ series all the GTS fascias were black only. The silver and woodgrain ones finished with the HX.

In 1984 a black one would still be a current part as WB commercials were still on sale until very early 1985.
