    Matt, I think this does need a bit more chrome and the '39 grill ('40 Standard) is one of the prettiest when chromed but maybe in the scheme of things this owner will graduallyadd some chrome later. However you can see that all the hood and body chrome has been eliminated and it looks good to me. How about those reversed door hinges! But then again I did look at a lot of pictures of Barris Customs so "dechromed" looks good to me but now I have stainless bumpers on my '29 and that looks good too. I think it just comes down to the situation that if you have the chrome and you want it then do so but if you don't then dechrome it smooth or paint over the faulty chrome.
