Swank Force One has access to my old KLZE swapped MX-3 if anyone is interested in saving one of these.

I may need to reach out to him in 90 days or so about that
Yes! The force awakens!
I'll find out. I'm pretty fortunate in that my sweetie owns an aviation business, and is even more obsessed than I am with cars. He just sends off the car parts whenever he has a big work order to fill.

In reply to JamesMcD: The plating process that we used is QQ-P-416 Type 2 Class II. This is the spec used for typical aircraft hardware. Small hardware is typically barrel plated, which is fairly economical. Big parts have to be individually racked which is a lot more work so more expensive. If you are just getting barrel plating done you are likely to run into whatever the shop's minimum charge is (maybe $150?).
