1973 Window frames

[AdamGill]

Hi all

My 1973 is about to go off and be dipped and am wondering whetehr it is worth trying to save the window frames?

Can these be polished? or are they chromed?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers
Adam

1. You need to disassemble completely and remove all threaded pieces as anodise stripping will destroy anything you leave behind

2 Take to Melbourne Anodizing to remove the anodizing

3 You need a mirror finish via a polisher, no scratching of any sort or any level, the polishing is critical to end result. Good luck finding a polisher.

4. Take back to Melbourne Anodizing in Clayton to be anodised in bright anodising.= and pray your polisher did an awesome job.

5. Reassemble

6. Re insatall

Quite task and not cheap

Hi Adam,

Yes but cheaper and easier to buy new front and rear windscreen surrounds.

Well worth the effort as Clyde says as well as the 1/4 windows being re chromed and the external door top rail and the 1/4 window alloy trim and the ...
