Here's a photo of a C55 that I am restoring one of my good client's Sam. It will be gutted out tomorrow and a full restoration will follow. Thanks Sam for waiting patiently. '<img'>

I've never done rechroming, I've always had good chrome on machines... what does it cost to do bezels, coin plates, etc? is it per peice or quantity?
how does that work..
I may want to rechrome stuff on the new project I got.

Thanks

Here's the C55 without its innards. The bottom pan is rusted out and will have to be replaced with new metal.
