    Ok...

    I have re-chromed my grille emblem. Brad, should I paint it simi gloss black, and for red, would it be the same red as the engine paint (I think DH 1608 is what I used)? :Do No:

    Semi gloss black and the Testors red seems to work well for the red part.

    Ok

    Thanks Brad. :TU:

    Looks like I might be able to P/U one of those Buick box cars, while looking for the testors red. :grin:
