Re: cad / zinc /galvanizing on certain parts
Jeff is correct. I just cleaned up some survivor Chevelle backing plates and the galvanzing is very evident.
Sam, the reason for not using todays galvanizing process (correct me if I am wrong anybody) is due to a cold galvanizing vs hot. Todays gavanizing is much courser that was done orignally. As Micky stated, it is much better to zinc them and dull them down a touch. Rick

Re: cad / zinc /galvanizing on certain parts
Thats the biggest deal, I have not found a process yet that is a good substitute for the way it was done. The zinc seems to hold up better over the long haul also.
