Ford bronco dash indicator light bar

[firefightersoca]

Hello out there experts,

I am restoring my lubr original 75 Bronco, almost done. I do have a problem . I purchased an orginal indicator light bar which I have a photo in my photo gallery. The metal that serves as the perimiter is pitted ugly but straight. What metal is it and how do I fix it to make it look new and good. I know Toms, BC, Graveyard etc. do not have it to urchase as a new part. I did get my orginal radio rechromed. I think it is too small to rechrome if it is chrome. Any ideas out there?

Thanks

I'll be interested in what the others say too. I'm working on a set for a friend, but have two sets to choose from at least. Neither one is great, but at least one of them is better than the other. Between the housings, lenses, shades, lamps and bezels, I just might be able to make a set out of it.
In the meantime though, I'm keeping my eyes open for some good ones.
Maybe someone's selling some in the "for sale" section?

Good luck.

Paul

It is chrome plated pot metal and is not too small to get rechromed. Might be expensive for the amout of time involved to repair and detail all the pitting. You may try a search for some places that may specialize in restoring smaller parts like these.
