    Cad plating is very hard to get done today and small batch is even worse. The waste disposal cost is 90% of the job costs I am told by a plater. You cannot open a cad plating plant in the US that can...

    You may want to bring in a concours judge or at least network with folks that have done this. Nobody knows everything but it’s a million dollar car. Get ahold of credible folks as a go to.

    These are hand made cars, thus all slight difference. In general the S/C carries the S/C lip. There is narrow hip, wide hip, comp rear and S/C lip all with the hand made differences.
