Sorry. Yours does not (at least to my eyes) look anything like that one on
eBay. Yours looks professionally done: that one on eBay is very sloppy and
does not look "professional" at all.
I still say that one is stripped.
For one thing, yours still has the red paint on it that was stock.
The one on eBay is missing that...among other things.
In addition, if you will read my previous e-mail I did NOT say that no
Hammarlunds were every plated: I simply said that one on eBay is not.
