Don Coatney Posted February 25, 2007 Report Posted February 25, 2007 I finally got around to replacing the bad chrome strip above my rear fender. I bought the replacement from a bay sell in Chattanooga a few months ago. Looks much better now. I think the original was damaged when the rear door opened beyond the stop. Quote
JIPJOBXX Posted February 25, 2007 Report Posted February 25, 2007 It truly is amassing that you can still get NOS trim as I just got a peice for the passenger side rocker. I know that will improve the look of your car as these trim pieces really stand out. I have all the trim now that I need to make my car almost look like new. But I have one more piece to find and that is the peice that rapes around the front fender and goes back to the wheel well. As this car probably was one of the last 42's of the assembly line that peice I notice is different from earlier 42's as its shorter. Probably this was due to the fact that maybe these units were custom built for the end of the line and to save material. Jon Quote
47heaven Posted February 25, 2007 Report Posted February 25, 2007 Yeah, Don. 110% better, I would say. Right now, I'm having all my stainless polished and chrome pieces done for a very good price...mainly because the polisher is a friend and he has a friend that does chrome. I still have to get the bumpers and guards done, which he said would cost $350. From what I've seen, that's a pretty good price. Quote
1947PLEVY Posted February 25, 2007 Report Posted February 25, 2007 Don: Next time, come up to the land and I can fix you up. Got a complete set of trim for a 4dr..minus rocker and fender pieces. But from what I heard you were adjusting the "RACE WINNER" for the next BIG ONE!!!! Take Care in the Boro And GoD Bless Us ALL.. John Ennis 47Plevy Quote
