Powered by FORD chrome quality?
« on: August 30, 2016, 12:11:20 AM »
I see the original style 'Powered by FORD' valve covers selling for $145 to $260 online. Are they all made in the same place or are some nicer than others?
I have heard of poor quality chrome on some but how do I know where to buy really nice ones?

If you have FoMoCo pieces that are in good condition I'd get them chromed.  I use Speed and Sport Chrome in Houston.  They do chrome work for customers all over the country; not cheap but excellent quality.
