The stock hoops as well as the luggage rack are all made of stainless, then powder coated black if that is desired.
All good advice Tim. My dealer admitted that this job is a pain even he doesn't want so I'm up for it. Patience I have and this will require it.
It will wait, however, as the Hemming's Cruise-In starts this Thursday evening and I will need to spend more time than normal getting this puppy cleaned and shiny for her first showing of the year! This happens in Bennington, Vermont, and the weather looks good. Always good fun to see others iron and new toys!
