Title: GOLD STAR PETROL TANK CHROME AND PAINT
Post by: Goldie on November 22, 2009, 10:02:16 PM

A friend of mine is rebuilding a BSA Gold Star CB 500 clubman.   Can anyone recommend a company who can do quality chroming on the petrol tank and also to paint the tank in the correct silver and put in the red piping to original spec?

Thanks.

For the plating I'd recommend Premier Platers in Welshpool over Kerry in Maddington.

For paintwork you're best bet is Plastonics in Belmont, just off Francisco St.  He can hand-brush the pinstriping if you prefer but it will cost a bit extra.
