Wow, that is a really nice casting. It looks like someone spent some time cleaning it up (or maybe polished it) in its past. They clean up nicely.

I've been on here for quite awhile now and can't help but notice a lack of mention on this subject in your restoration threads. Why is that? Are you guys concerned more with using "factory" finishes or just don't know much about it? I would like to help, and perhaps eventually see more of...

Stamped steel or aluminum? Those aren't as detailed as the ribbed version but they could still get customized a little.

They have oiling areas at the rivets (look for small holes in the recesses around them). Sometimes you'll need to pound the "ears" flat where it mounts. Overall they're pretty simple.

Same here, the only Mopar people in town. It's kind of pretty here but I miss civilization and intelligence; some of these locals couldn't pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were embossed on the heel.

Oh don't worry Robert, I will! The FedEx guy picked up the box early this morning so I should have some comparison pictures from the customer very soon. I'm not sure who is more anxious to see the results, him or me! LOL :D

Chryco, thanks! I just now got done getting the box ready for FedEx to pick up in the morning [ughhh what a day!! lol] so we should ALL know how it looks in the next day or two. I truly appreciate all the help and input with this experiment.
