Powder Coated Rims
I have a very reputable blasting and powder coating shop near me, come this winter, I am thinking of getting my wheels power coated in preparation for new tires in the spring.
Is this a good idea? I am not sure how thick a power coating is or if it would change how the wheels mount to the hubs or how the tires mount to the wheels.
Curious if any of you have powder coated you wheels/rims and what the results were. Also, if you don't mind disclosing how much you paid for the service?
Thanks all!
Logan, 64 Fleetwood

Hi Logan, they can cover areas you don’t want coated if you’re concerned about a mating face. Or just use a flapper disc to take it back

'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration
Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment 0 Likes
My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns.
There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…

Hi all,
I have a 63 series 62 convertible.
Thought it would be a good idea to make the fin lights flash as well as tail/stop lights.

its the pink wire on the color diagram i have. purple on passenger side.
Any how, yes it works and looks great, during the…
