  • Speaking of good vendors..

    I just got my Avanti valve covers from Jerry Forrester today- simply beautiful. Now I need to go buy some white cotton gloves so I can handle them.

      Jerry has my Wagonaire roof rack now and several other Wagonaire parts for plating. He does EXCELLENT work at reasonable prices (a hard combo to find). Pot metal is easy to ruin in the plating process, but Jerry knows what he is doing and does it right. He did ALL the plating on the Kart Hauler...

        Mr Steinkamp,
        So did Jerry do your bumpers then as well? They look better in the pictures than comparable steel plating I've seen of late.

          Yes...all the chrome on this car was redone by Jerry. All "show quality".

            I'm driving over to Jerry's shop later to drop off some stainless and Avanti chrome for Paul Johnson. I hope his head isn't so big that I can't fit in the door.

              Mr. Steinkamp,

              For my enjoyment, would you mind posting more photos of your car or direct me to a photo album? These photos look great but I would like to see the entire car.

                I picked up a set of chrome valve covers at York that Jerry did for me. The price was very good but the workmanship and quality was excellent. Now if somebody rechromed Avanti Breather caps that actually fit the breather tubes....... that's another story.

                  Just sent my R1 valve covers and valley cover off to Jerry. Boxing up the Avanti front bumper and end pieces this weekend to ship off. Everybody has good things to say about Forrester's Chrome, can't wait to get my valve covers and valley cover back! My "cheap Avanti" is starting not to be so cheap, lol! David

                        OK How do you get the breather caps to fit? Seeing this post I went out and tried a NOS chrome breather cap on my beautiful valve covers- no joy!
