trimacar Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Don Sommer parts are beautiful, although pricey. Still, if this is what's missing, and you need it......good luck in your search! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curti Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Be careful of reproductions, as many times there is detail lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30's Mopar Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Don makes these with lost wax method which keeps the detail. THe originals are potmetal and end up worst as potmetal is hard to chrome based on the pitting. Stick with the lost wax process and you will be happy and cheaper in the long run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curti Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) Attached is a NOS American Austin accessory rooster prior to chroming. The reproduction cap is cast stainless steel done by a popular casting business. Note the lack of detail in the reproduction.
