We are about to paint the center of the wheel covers and the late '53 "V8" hood emblem (not the tristar). All old gold paint has been removed. John Bridges states in "Studebaker's Finest" that the wheel covers (they are 54's) should be painted light enough to allow some of the chrome to show through. Any advice on how to do this?
Also, I believe the "8" on the hood emblem should be painted totally gold with no regard to allowing chrome to show through, right?
All can be seen in pictures below as they are now. Thanks.
