  1. Just a heads-up that we are having our Fall show at the Coburg Grange hall in Coburg, Oregon (7 miles north of Eugene off I-5) on Saturday, October 4th from 9am-3pm with awards at 2pm. This is a "people's choice" voting type of show with awards for decades ('50s, '60s, etc.) and is open to street-legal cars only. Also, several model vendors will be there selling kits. For more information call Chris at (541) 683-5005 or Stan at (541) 545-5745 Hope to see you there! -Mike
  2. I use "aluminum plate" buffing metalizer for that- spray a little puddle on a piece of cardboard and let it gas out for a few seconds then rub my finger in it and tamp it on the chrome part's surface. The metalizer will stick to the plastic better than the chrome, then you just buff it and it blends right in.
