Thumbs up I got my grill,bezels,eyebrows,rear bumper back

I just had my '72 GMC grill,headlight bezels,eyebrows,and rear bumper rechromed and it looks great and got my rebuilt stock GM Hei today and had it recurved to my 402 engine specs. Can't wait to get the restoration done. The cab will be coming off soon and having the frame sandblasted and then painted. I'll keep you all updated on the restoration. Thank you all for all of your help.Dave

What, no pics?

Where did you have the chroming done, and if you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost to get done. Thanks, Don.

Had all my grille pieces ( grille, top bar, headlight bezels, and eyebrows) rechromed about 4 years ago. Cost me $1,000 . If I would have waited, I could've bought new aftermarket parts for about $750 . Hafta learn not to get into a rush with these things? Been working on it since '93, and I ain't done yet.
