T Bar
Can anyone suggest where I can buy a new chrome T Bar for my t tops? I have checked all the places I can think of and no one seems to sell a repro.
I have a '74.
Thanks,
DT

Hi dt,
Since the trim is made from stainless steel, used pieces in good condition can be purchased and then polished at home or sent off to a shop.
They turn out well!

Hi D,
There's a little 'catch'.... the originals are 'flash' chromed, so they match the 2 corner pieces on the front header, and also the 2 long trim pieces on the halo.
If you spend the time you can buff all the chrome off, (it's very thin), and use it the way it is, or have the ss flash chrome plated again.
Good Luck!

Alan
