My dad bought the last new '67 at the local BMC dealer. I learned to drive in it ten years later and still apply those "stick and rudder" skills in my '84 911.

Hell that looks fun all in its own right! We would have killed each other if we'd had one of those when I was younger. Lol.

Starting in 1973 Formula One rules forbid chrome plating of steel suspension parts. The electroplating

process had been proven to substantially worsen a phenomena known as hydrogen embrittlement.

Hydrogen atoms are diffused throughout all steel alloys, and various manufacturing processes can

cause them to migrate, become concentrated, and build-up in in pressure to the point where cracks

start from within. Since the problem is worse with chrome plating than other finishing operations

(including nickel plating), Formula One rules singled chrome plating out.

I have been told that post baking immediately following the plating process corrects this issue.
