1" stems with removable faceplates?
Can any one recommend or tell me if there are any 1" quill stems with removable faceplates, and if so, where they can be found. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

my suggestion is to get a 1 1/8" stem and use a spacer.

have you tried a google search of quill stem? when I do it comes up with at least 4 quill stems with face plates and I opened two of the references in the shopping and they both were 1". There was one on amazon and one on nashbar. Im sure there are other dealers. and these cost between 15-19.

Profile makes some with removeable faceplates. So does Kalloy and "amoeba"
Most of these will be for 26.0 bars, alternatively you can run a quill to threadless adapter and then use any modern 1 1/8 threadless stems you want - this gives you angle, length and bar clamp assorted selection. Which will be much more plentiful than a 1" quill with removable faceplate.

Thank you for all the input. I am going to look at those suggested and see if I can find one to fit my needs - for a road bike, with 60-70 mm reach. It seems I will find what I need.

I've got three Profile Design H2O 1" quill stems with removable faceplates and 26.0 mm bar clamps sitting in my parts box right now. Their web site still shows a 1" "Boa" quill stem with a removable faceplate but only for 25.4 mm bars.
Look here: https://www.profile-design.com/profil...stems/boa.html
Trust me, they exist.

Universal Cycles carries the Profile ones. I have a couple of the 105 deg ones and while not the most beautiful things, they work fine.

Prolly should've added I haven't looked for a while. Removable faceplates are a handy trend.

I have a 3T Mutant 1" quill with removable faceplate on my single speed. These were available in the late 90's. Check ebay.

I had a Cannondale CODA quill stem with a removable face plate. Do a search on ebay for cannondale or CODA quill stem and you'll find them.

Deda Murex, still listed on the Deda Elementi website and fairly easy to find on ebay (some finishes are more difficult i.e. hi polish ).

Have you looked on ebay? There's plenty. Profile, Zoom, Kalloy and no-name ones made by Zoom or Kalloy.
I've used one like this for many years. https://cgi.ebay.com/Zoom-quill-stem-...item53e04e0107
I use this combo too from Velo Orange on another bike, it's rock solid and looks cool.
https://www.velo-orange.com/vothstad.html
https://www.velo-orange.com/vostem.html
Get a 1" spacer to fit underneath the quill for a flush setup, as there' is a 1mm gap between the stem adapter and the height of the stem itself.
