Too many chrome accessories a bad thing for a car that will be driven on a regular basis? Just wondering...

 

No....They are just harder to keep clean.

 

Gotcha...my dad recommends powder coating some of the parts and not using as much chrome because of that and possible rusting but I've been looking at people's engines at the car shows I've been to and I think I like the chrome look...How have you been Joe? Don't know if I told you but thanks for the hood man! I really do appreciate it!

 

With proper maintenance/cleaning Chrome is great. Be careful with abrasives though

If you are more "set it and forget it", or this is more of a daily driver, powder coating might be better

 

Yeah...It'll probably only be driven one-three times a week at very most and I plan on babying it...I already have chrome valve covers, breathers, and the chrome air cleaner. I'm thinking chrome alternator and fan shield next...are there any other key pieces you see alot in chrome?

 

Hey Big Trav! Things are good, got my car done (mostly) and have been driving it as much as possible before it snows. How did the hood work out, can you post some pics?

 

The only other things I can think of are the master cyl cap, and alt & PS brackets, maybe the oil filler cap as well.

 

Hey Joe, I haven't put it on yet...the cars front end is broken down and I'm cleaning everything with my dad. I'm trying to get things together for my engine so I can have it rebuilt soon...the color I plan on painting the car is the candy tangerine from house of kolor but I probably won't be ready to paint it until mid to late 2011.

 

Thanks Mike, I'm searching for those parts right now.
