    67-68 Dual tips

    My HCS has Ford tips on it. I found what was left of the part # and the Ford stamp. They appear to be chrome plated steel not the stainless steel like all the reproductions. Can someone tell me if the chrome is correct? If they were chrome I will have these replated. Help Jeff S. or Scott F. Martyl
