Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..

Well after I got the bumper and grill back from chrome, it made my other exterior chrome look really bad..
It looked good enough before ,with only minor defects in the chrome..nothing left to do but send the rest off for rechrome...well it came back today looking like brand new..maybe even better than it did in 1957..
They rechromed everything and did a 24k gold plating on the "IH" for the front emblem..I think it all turned out great..
The ribbed area behind the IH was painted black, so I'll have to paint that..it should make the IH really stand out against the chrome...also the words "drive" and "series" were black as well
