Hi 540,
I don't think anyone is reproducing the 2 chrome plated trim moldings.
Have you considered having yours re-plated?
I see used tim in pretty good condition and restored trim on the bay on occasion.
Regards,
Alan

I agree with Alan..... I don`t think anyone is re-popping the halo trims. I had a set re-chromed for my 71 coupe, and they look GREAT! Check e-bay, swap meets, or place a "wanted" ad on the forum for sale section.

Any ideas on where to get them rechromed. I have nothing local.

Hi 540,
Merry Cristmas!
Librandi Plating in Middletown Pa. (near Harrisburg) does very nice work.
Regards,
Alan

The 4 pieces shown here were done by them.

Hi DF,
I try to keep the garage sealed up as well as I can and have a what's 'advertised' as a 'dust-proof' cover.
Regards,
Alan
