nickle or chrome on old cars is a little more personal choice nowadays.
i say that as the only nickle we seam to get offered is called bright nickle, its closer to looking like chrome when new. it does colour down a little with age. but never gets anywere near the old fasioned nickle.
some cars i have or have built ive gone for bright nickle even though they should be chrome, because it is a little softer looking when it ages. rather than the sharp glear of chrome

i often seam to now how roger perkins feels.
last night i witnessed one of the dog walkers cars being stollen, dont even know what happened to the owner? no call back from local police.
the night before wilst walking the dog, at first i thought i had been hit from behind with a baseball bat. it was actually a full bottle of fizzy orange, thrown from a hothatch doing 90mph by a w**ker. it hit me with the same force. nearly taking me to my knees.
arming up with a large conrod sounds good to me.
