They were all chrome (stainless steel actually). Just some info on them, from what it sounds like, you are not going for an original / authentic restoration, but there were two different inner (the inside piece) bars used on the HJ windsheild division bar: The one used on the late '52s - '54s has a mounding hole in it for the rear view mirror. The 1951 version does not have this hole as the rear view mirror on a 1951 mounts through the head liner and not on the windshield division bar. The hole is on the inside piece so it would not be visible when viewing the vehicle from the outside. The two pieces do interchange with no problems, it's just a matter of what type of restore you're going for and whether you care about that. Tex Dean in Oklahoma likely has one. Contact him at
