Have a set of fuel rails for my '72 that are "cad" plated.
Back in my concours days, my rails were polished (by me) to a brilliance of chrome. Know that's not correct, but the new rails are spec. Been too long for me to remember the correct "original" finish. So....... Pat |

Purdy. I think the finishes can vary slightly from when the batches are produced. I've ordered injector holder brackets and some were clear zinc (silver), and other had a yellowish tint. Think next time I have some plating done, I'll send out my decel valve. I'm jealous now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
