Alright so I unzipped the caster locked FA-60 engine and found a couple surprises. It appears it had new or really close to new pistons and a beveled crank. But what REALLY threw me off was chromed rods... I quit for the night before I split the rods from the crank so I didn't 100% confirm that they were chromed and not just highly polished.
So my question that can likely only get answered here is; Was Chrome Plating rods something that was often done on these engines?
Pictures to come,
