Hello All,
I am almost ready to take all the parts in my Eldo restoration to a
local painter. I have obtained the nice gas tank and fender tip decals
from John Prusnek, but forgot about the "Eldorado" script on the side
covers. Does anyone out there have a pattern or tracing or some easy way
of getting the correct script? Any answers would be appreciated.
Also, when I took apart my wheels, I noticed that the spoke nipples
were brass plated with what looked like a very thin coating of nickel. I
took them to a plating shop where I was told that nickel plating would
not appear as shiny as what was originally on the nipples, although the
plater said that it could be a very thin plating which he was not sure
he could reproduce. I left a few for him to try plating, but I wonder if
anyone out there knows exactly what is on these things. Any responses
appreciated.
