Re: [Chrysler300] 1957 Taillight spacer color

[Keith Boonstra <kboonstra@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I believe I concur based on other old pieces I also have, but it seems 
it would have been better and more reflective. So I just wondered if 
anyone had seen a silver top surface on one.

On the fuel line from the pump to the front carburetor - Still hoping 
someone will go through the trouble to lend me one for a week.

Thanks.
