Well son of a gun. AMD told me in November that they had no plans at that time to supply that piece. Merry Christmas!

I have had success using a 2:1 ratio with a cup of salt for each gallon of vinegar. Of course it depends on what you are de-rusting. This has worked well on sheet metal, frame rails, brake drums etc. As hdwrench mentioned, it can be corrosive so you need to experiment. I will give the molasses...

Do you all really prefer molasses to a vinegar and salt solution?

Are they spot welded together?

Spoke with Kevin at AMD this morning. He said they don't carry the 3rd piece and that he doesn't see any announcement that they will soon carry that part and that it would be another year if they were planning on producing it. Sorry for the bad news.

Yes it does help, thanks. I will give AMD a call tomorrow for you. It doesn't make sense that they wouldn't carry all 3 pieces. I'll see what they say and let you know.

I haven't called them yet. Could you post more pics showing all 3 pieces?

When I started my project, I had been told that no one made reproduction A-Pillars. That's why I was so excited when I saw AMD had started carrying them. I am going to give them a call and ask if they plan on carrying the third piece. If they won't our only choices would be to fabricate them...

Interesting. I haven't started working on my A-Pillar's yet, so I didn't know they consisted of 3 pieces. My hopes are dashed. Why wouldn't AMD produce all 3 pieces?

Where do you get rid of it?

$200 a pop for single pillar. Available for shipment sometime in June.

In my excitement, I neglected to specify exterior, the metal A-Pillars that rot out, especially if you have a vinyl top.

Great news. AMD is now carrying replacement A-Pillars. Lord knows I need a pair. :bananadance:

Does molasses kill the rust and keep it from coming back like vinegar does? Vinegar is a whole lot cheaper and doesn't grow mold like molasses does. What's the advantage of molasses over vinegar?

:rofl:

Ever try vinegar and water? It's been working well for me.

I got the following quote from Paul's Chrome Plating in PA. Hi Michael, just remove brackets, lights or the like, we will take care of the surfaces, once stripped and any straightening or dent removal is done metal is polished to a 1000 grit finish, then copper plated and buffed until we have a...
