Thanks for hunting that info down, Howard. There is a mention of it in my owner's manual, and I can testify that besides the items on that list many of the interior chrome parts skipped the nickel too. Horn ring, steering wheel trim pads, shift position cover on the column, dash parts. All very touchy to clean without getting down to the copper quickly.

I am going to look at a '51 in the area as a potential parts car, so I'm trying to decide what it would be worth compared to buying different year parts as available. We'll see how it looks when I can get a break to go look it over.
