    Finish on 82 Collector wheels?

    What type of finish is on the 1982 Collector edition wheels? Are they polished aluminum? Clear coated? Any ideas on restoring a set of these wheels to like new condition?

    They are polished, not to a mirror finish though. They are clear coated. Very labor intensive to refinish. Strip the existing finish, polish, clean, etch the aluminum, paint the fins, clear the wheel. Good for a couple of Saturdays that you did not have anything else to do.
