hi tony

have you ever thought of re-painting one ?
its a slow process but , the end result is worth it.
you can use hobby paint.. there is a special type of paint
to use but i forget what its called. i know Ken knows
what its called .

you can use caustic soda to remove the paint and then
give it a very light sand ( the outer bit ) with wet and dry paper.
then use brasso to give it a nice polish. it works great too !

after its painted you can get the center lion plastic chromed silver or gold and it does come up good.

its just a thought anyway and no i dont have a good one for sale only ones that have had the paint removed.
you can have one of those cheap ?

cheers
