71 Cuda tail light housing

[Tunis]

I sent my tail light housings to be plated. Unfortunately, they were completely destroyed in the process. So I need to buy another set. Preferably a restored set. Can also buy complete units if that is the only option.

Thanks!

@Tunis     Here's a set: https://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/kitchener-waterloo/1970-cuda-barracuda/1501571401

That's about 1,086.17 Krona plus shipping

Sorry to hear that you lost your originals. I can't imagine what your plater did to destroy them but I can assure you that if you find another core set that needs refinishing I can give them a proper dichromate finish without doing them any harm. Drop me a line for pricing and details if interested 

[Tunis]

Thanks @anlauto !

I have a set that needs restored that I will give you and will ship them to Scott for restoration if you want to go that route.

[Tunis]

@76orangewagon wow, that is super! Let me know how much you want for it and the restoration cost and I will send it to you!

[ScottSmith_Harms]

The cost is $150.00 per pair plus shipping. Nothing due until complete, allow about 4 weeks to complete. This is to replate them only, I do not spray the inside silver (which is pretty easy to do yourself after plating).

Thanks everyone! This is the way I want to go for sure!

@ScottSmith_Harms the plater said (more like mumbled, embarrassed as he was) something about the castings containing aluminum and that some acid he used to clean them up, ate them. Yes, I would have liked to have the originals, but this way will be just as good in the end.

@76orangewagon, please send them to Scott and PM me the info needed to send some cash your way.

 :stop:Sodium hydroxide ,used in radiator boil out tanks does not like aluminum. Ask me how I know...

@Tunis  Is this plater going to compensate you for HIS mistake!!! 

[Tunis]

@JS29 I don't think I have any leverage. I did leave a bunch of other parts to get zinc plated, and I got that free of charge because of the "mistake".

[JS29]

He made it right by doing that im my opinion!
