Stan-
Interesting info. I'm definitely glad I know the guy doing my chrome
(albeit the wait)! I would like to chrome, or at least paint my gauge rings
on my early 67 as they are rusted and pitted. Is there a way to remove
them? It appears that they are crimped on and sealed? Believe it or not,
tonight I had all but given up and had begun prepping the rings to glass
bead them and paint them while on the gauges. If there is an easier way, I
am very open to suggestions! I have checked the archives but didn't find
any answers.
Man am I glad I know a chrome guy............$1400!.......Wow! Still in
disbelief........

signal rings, rear light housings (all), rear reflector housings, back up
light ring, 2 "Datsun" emblems, and had the hood trim and side trim pieces
polished for $1400.00. Of course it took him over a month and a half to get
everything back to me too...but I think that is pretty standard. I remember
talking to someone once who had all theirs done for $1200.00 but I remember
them saying that was a pretty low price.
