Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Tim, having a '57 Chevy it pains me somewhat to see that poor Chevy just slowly dissolving back to the earth as it is. Look like the rear bumper and the tail light housings are decent from what one can tell in the pics. Too bad as reproduction '57 Chevy bumpers from what I've found leave a LOT to be desired to the reproduction offerings. Reproduction tail light housings also are not the best. Being diecast a lot of plating companies will not touch them for replating. I had both my original front and rear bumpers re-plated 4 years ago and back then it was $1,500 for the pair, nice but not Barrett/Jackson quality. Hate to think what it would be now with how things have gone bat***t crazy with prices now days.
