Extreme Veteran Posts: 335 Location: California/Wisconsin | I came across these in all my stuff. Someone said 1959 Dodge badged single carb D500's in all chrome and Super D500's with gold embellishment. Is that so or were all of them the same?

Also, they look to have been "24K" gold plated, instead of gold-ish lacquered. | ||

Location: The Mile High City | Paul, I wonder if these might be the re-pop versions (still very desireable!) It's a great set. Do they have the CDPD stampings on the back? | ||

Expert Posts: 4043 Location: Connecticut | I think they look that way because of the flash. A better representation would be to shoot them outside on a cloudy day. To me, they look real. Check for the part number on the back. Ron | ||
