RE: [Chrysler300] Wire terminal block restoration perplexion

["Gary Nelson" <gnelson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had the one from my 57C cad plated (as original) and tuned out perfect,
looks like new. Chemicals do not effect Bakelite. Gary

  I have been pretty successful/lucky so far in figuring out some tricky,
laborious, or outrageously expensive way of either restoring or replacing
each little widget of my '57 C for its restoration. Everything is coming out
really nicely. But I have to hit you guys up on this little one.

  The five-post terminal block on the radiator support is bakelite with
molded-in posts that were probably originally zinc plated. All the plating
has rusted off the posts, and I can't think of a coating I can renew them
with that will look right, be conductive, and protect them against rusting
again for the long haul.

  Does anyone have an idea for this? Or is there an accurate replacement
available?

  Thanks to all for the help.
