28 LaSalle

[28LaSalle]

Question. Would a LaSalle rad shell be plated or painted originally? Charlie

[Kean Thompson]

Plated - not sure if nickel or chrome as this was about the time of change to chrome.

acc to the 6th edition Cadillac La Salle Master Parts List,covering '26 to 36 all cars, the 303 shell is Nickel plated and the 328 is Chromed, Johan

[28LaSalle]

So would all brightwork be nickel??

[Johan Boltendal]

I'm no expert on the '28 the'30 and '32 V8's I know, MPL says headlamps nickel, no specs for bumpers as chrome came

late 28 or about I suspect it might be nickel all. You might want to visit the Cadillac club site and order an Authenticity Manual 2A for your car, well worth the $$ if you are restoring your car, Johan

Thanks Johan!
