Jeffrey,
If you can't locate a nice set, then you can probably restore them by stripping, filling divots, rechroming & repainting them/it. For the divot filling, you can get an "Aluminum Welding Kit" from Vintage Trailer Supply which is essentially pot-metal like the frames are made of, & you use a small pencil blowtorch to fill in any rusted holes, then sand to smooth with 400 - 1000 grit - then off to the chrome shop, then paint after chroming (make sure to match paint colors before stripping). http://www.vintagetrailersupply.com/Alumi-...t-p/vts-335.htm PS - It's a little trick from one of my other hobbies - restoring the cast metal chromed pieces on our 1960 Avion T20 trailer (like an Airstream). Good Luck Hunting or Restoring! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |
