And if i one decided to go the way of Jon B glass/walnut blasting, whats the charge for rockers, inlet?

You'd have to PM Jon and ask him, Mate. I never like to quote another man's business!

Have you decided against the weathered look now, then? Are you going to have an open engine bay?

Hi those rockers will stay weathered, but they are just as bad on the inside, not sure it'll clean well enough by hand to risk using them, also i have a couple of small holes in the blanked off hole, that'll need to be cleaned to be welded, so i might just get them done, then let them age again,
I'll give John B a PM he's only up the road

Here's a couple more sets from Jungle Jem's stash, that boy loves a good polish...

First ones are Cal Custom, second one's are Offenhauser with period breathers....
