Are they chrome when new?

I think the grabs may have been, but they were pretty rusty and I just thought they would look nice chrome regardless, so that what they are now. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 187 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 187 | I'll agree with you there Bill, they look good chrome. Awesome '46.
