B pillar stainless trim

[Dodge Ball]

The B pillar stainless trim on my 69 Road Runner is pretty beat up. I have not found anyone making repro trim. Is there a reputable shop that straightens and can re-polish this trim ? Also did the painted B pillar cars have a separate painted trim piece that went over the b pillar, or was the paint applied directly to the exposed pillar ? thanks DB

paint was applied to the exposed pillar, i actually pulled mine off cuz i personally like the bare look better. if you pull yours off it will be body color underneath.

Thanks, 68H, this info gives me an option to replacing the stainless.

In Philadelphia you have 2 platers who can do it. In New Jersey I have used a trim repair guy who is really amazing. GTL Metal Polishing is really fantastic if no chrome work is required. George Lucas is the owner. He has done amazing work for me.

Those companies do some fine work, just wonder how many body parts it'll cost?!

Nothing is cheap when it comes to Chrome or metal Knockers.
