This poor old bug. The base chipped and rusted The chrome dull and pitted, parts missing. This bug is to far gone to simply clean up. So I decided to take a more intrusive approach!
I removed everything from the base except the nameplate.

Then I removed the Nameplate and striped the base. I don't know if I'll have the base chromed or try and match one of the 193� 's base colors or just try a different color than Vibroplex has ever used.
Metallic Gray from a 1987 Cadillac Sedan de Ville.
Just like the '87 Caddy we owned until 2009.
