As far as I understand these were plated with chrome, but I'm not sure. And if they are plated, does anyone know of a source of plated nuts? Stanley has them new in steel, but plating in Europe will cost me about $180. Thanks in advance, Dave

Maybe not "authentic", but they work and are cheap and shinny. They sure look good with a nice painted dust cover. 1929 Chevrolet: The Most Outstanding Chevrolet In Chevrolet History! Capt. Harley
