mikewest Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Dick The fuse box cover is black as well the brake fluid can and bracket. The new sticker is sold by the Franklin club. New doorsill plates can be ordered from DOOR SILLS in NJ I think. They are beautiful reproductions ,Just perfect in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odat Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 The one I have are OK and they have the Franklin logo in the middle of them. they need a lot of something to make them look new. Should they be polished to shinny? blasted satin or brushed to a grain finish. Do the new ones have the logo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Braverman Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I bought a set of door sills for a '33 Chrysler and they were PERFECT. Don't bother trying to polish what you have. The repros from NJ are beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
