NOS 69 Chevelle taillight bezels just sold on epay
Pair of 80's quality bezels and one [LH] lens just brought $1,357.00 on epay.
2 bidders really wanted them. Really interesting following them. 80's quality 69 bezels are for sure better than 80's quality 67's but not like old ones. Darn glad we bought that entire old stash a while ago. |
Didn't happen unless you post the link.

Depends on how well the chrome cleans up.
Look to be OE quality put pics do not show what needs to be seen well. Pic is a decent OE quality RH. Look at edges compared to epay 80's ones. Plain to see. |
Something like that sells for $20 here, but cold garner $500 on ebay....but that's the cynic in me.
|
Wouldn't surprise me if it would cost more to rechrome an original pair these days.

Good point and you still have the pitted issue. Darn hard to find OE quality ones with no pits.

a good chrome plater will make them look like new, probably better than new. Chrome is stripped, pits are filled, triple chrome process. Expensive yes, but at least they are not '59 Cadillac (Caddy, ha,ha) bumpers.

We know exactly what this means and do not want "better than new". These are production line common cars. Not works of art. Really comes down to what you want. We want them as close as possible to how they were when picked up by the original buyer new. |

Cleaned the chrome a bit.
|
Those are super nice, Charley.
|
Most of these pot metal castings have that familiar rough border that a rechrome will destroy......duplicating a repop unit.

Charlies look pretty good.
Pic is a decent OE quality LH that the black paint did not age well on. |
