C1 grill teeth woes

Re: C1 grill teeth woes

I gave up on Trim Parts changing the emblems when the owner told me they were perfect copies of the originals. Even though they are not, he sells them as fast as he can make them. For me the solution was to "remanufacture" the silver service replacement emblems with 24 karat gold. Expensive process, but worth it to me and a few other C1 owners.

Troy, Try M&P Refinishing for your grille teeth, etc. M&P is located in Jeannette, PA. 724-527-6360 It's a family ran shop that is used by a lot of other platers as a sub-contractor. Gorgeous work. Specialies in pot metal also. Ask for Don Kerlin. Mention my name.

Notice that Delkin Motorsports from LA uses M&P. Mark's business is in LA and he ships his parts all the way to the SW corner of PA. Mark from Delkin is well known in at the NCRS shows. I've been using M&P since they opened.

I had the same go-around. Even sent photos of a 53-55 NOS emblem and explained what minor, inexpensive change was needed to the black paint mask. They say their emblems are perfect reproductions and judges do not mark them down.
