MR G does in Ft Worth. I think $99 exchanged. They do not detail them though.

Any vendor should sell it. I would think buying one would be cheaper than having it rechromed.

Agreed, would be cheaper if they were available. You didnt specify which panel you were looking for. No one is reproducing the 70 deluxe instrument panel. The standard panel with black camera case finish I believe is available already chromed and painted.

I have used Mr. G's , but in the last five years have used this place Chrome Tech USA * * * * * * * * * * ***************** Over 20 Years Experience - Chrome tech usa, Chrome plating service, vacuum metallizing, for plastic on model cars, toys and automotive interior dash pannels
The quality of the chrome is outstanding, seems to be thicker, and wears better then the original Ford plating.

Which interior pieces were plastic-chromed on a 70 mach 1 (deluxe interior). Instrument bezel, clock bezel, console insert. Anything else?

The console has two chromed parts; the large insert and the Woodgrain panel

Default Vision Restorations

I sent Chris at Vision my 69 parts back on on May 5, 2012 and he has given me a lot of excuses why I still do not have my parts back. He sounds like a good person and means well, but cannot keep on schedule. Additionally, he does not do well calling you back when you leave messages. I sure hope my parts meet my expectations as I have explained to him the level of my restoration. What happened to good customer service?
