Curtis... that looks great, but I think you need to replace this mirror, as there seems to be a bunch of stuff on it...



Seriously though... the before pic that shows a whole lot of rusted parts... are they just blasted and powdercoated or did you put in new metal?

Blasted, Powder coated and Re-plated. The coin box area, I had to replace a few pieces of metal. I have more Chrome knobs on the way. After the customer saw the chrome ones, he wants all the knobs in Chrome. I told him??  It looks great in person. I have all the decals for sale as well.

I'm located in Hagerstown, MD  70 miles from Baltimore, MD and 15 Min. from my good friend Steve Ebner, of Funtronics Inc. For those of you that have never had the chance to meet him, he's a great guy. He's here at my place often. We have been very close friends for more than 13 years now. If any of you talk with him this week, tell him Curtis from Memory Lane Restorations said hi.

I do talk to him quite a bit and he is a heck of a nice guy. One of these days, I'll put a face to the name. I spoke with him today and he is off to a car show this Wednesday.
