Hi Tom,

The guy who did mine polished the outside edges and the ribs. Didn't re-anodize though, couldn't find any more local shops who did that. I think I have $75-$100 a side into them. If you want his name/contact info, let me know. You'll need to mask & repaint the black between the ribs.

They'd need to be shipped to MN.

Mark,

Please send the contact information also.  Once I find a decent set, I'll need to send them out for refinishing.

Thanks,

Chris

I spoke to a vendor at the Carlisle swap meet back in 2008 about a set that was being done for a customer..... $150 each to have them CHROMED.

I understand the disc are a smaller diameter then the 70-72 maybe same as Oldsmobile. I professional polish on rockers usually run me about $80 a side unless they are really dinged up.
re painting the ribbed area looks fun...  :angry1:
