Hey guys
Anyone done a restoration, should there be any thing else that should be done in chrome? so far i have gathered up:
Rearview mirror thing
Sunshade support
Door kick plates
Door strikers & screws
Bolts and nuts
Glove box rails
headlight surround cups
blinker surrounds
Hate to be going back to do something obvious that I havent thought of.
Cheers
Mick

Chroming the bonnet springs will cause them to lose their tension and the bonnet will only hold itself halfway up.
