Title: Chrome adhesive trim for Cavalier USS Square Top, Sources ? Trim Size? Post by: USS64K on January 30, 2010, 12:26:05 pm Hey All,
Talking with a painter for my USS-8-64 Cavalier. Maybe painting it soon. For those of you who have decided to dress up your square tops with adhesive chrome trim, can you show me a photo of yours? Also, can you tell me where you purchased it and the width used? Even better if you can tell me a part number or direct me to a link where I can purchase what you've used. Thanks in advance. Really do appreciate all the help here on the list. Making progress!!! Want it all done by my birthday in May. Thanks!!

Post by: USS64K on February 01, 2010, 04:27:37 pm For the USS Cav 8-64, It appears 5/8" will work best all the way around. I did find some on various internet sites but were selling in 50 ft rolls. Heck, I only need about 17 feet or so. That being said, I will purchase straight up by the foot from Funtronics. If I was restoring many machines, then I'd get them from Sportwing.com. Thinks that's where I saw it.
My painter came to the house today to look at the machine. Mostly stripped down now. We are going all out and doing base coat / clear coat. Man,, I can't wait!! He'll come by and pick it up and a couple weeks. Told him I'd like it back by May. He'll work on it a bit here and there. He does great work. I restored a 1967 BMW R69S motorcycle and it has more hits on Youtube than any other BMW R69S in the world. He painted the bike for me. He's impressive.
