1936 Elgin Bluebird tear down

[rlhender]

I am starting the restoration project on my BB after tearing down there were signs of blue paint so I guess I will go back with original color. I really like the blue better than the red. I did pick up the kickstand and a set of grips this week. I am still needing a rear rack, a few bands for the grips and a seat.
I am looking for some help on what all is supposed to be chrome and what gets nickel. so if anyone has detailed pics it would be great. Or if you want to just list out what should be correct that would be good too.

Thanks

I guess I would have to add about 10k for tear down labor plus shipping would make your grand total $NFS

But you know me stupid money buys anything..lol

Sweet... Bike. Crome the crank,rims, hubs, cups,bars,neck door knob. Cad the stand,drive gear(jealous), horn and possibly the bracket that holds the speedo.... Then stainless trim around the nose.
