Gorgeous machine Pat!  To echo Josh, I too would like to know what size chrome you used and where you got it.  My Vendo 63 is in need of new (unvandalized) chrome.

Ok to answer your questions, The chrome trim is all original, I learned a long time ago how
straighten chrome trim out, the Paint code I will have to get back to you on that, And as far
as the sign  I have a Guy that I insure that has done all my art design I told him what I needed
and this is what he came up with.
I'm glad you guy's like it .
Thanks

Jed , The trim straighting I learned from a old bump shop guy,
it takes practice and the right tools.(And the smack in the back
of the head by the old boy when your doing it wrong
':O' )Thats what they called learning back then ':p' .
