My original 63 door lock and reflector look OK but they are 50 year old chrome. Purchased a set from corvette central because they were American made, thinking they would probably be the best. They fit OK but the quality of the chrome is not very shiny. Anyone have any luck in plating the original ones. With the shape of the lock, looks like it would be difficult to buff and plate, with the chrome not getting into the tight areas. What about the quality of the foreign made.

Re: Repo 63 door lock quality not good
I did not make myself clear enough. I'm talking about the inside door lock knob, which is definitely chrome plated steel. You might be talking about the outside lock, which is SS.- Top

Yea, if I do keep the repo's I will replace the lighter plastic with the original plastic, which is in good condition.- Top
