Great thread and I'll post to be subscribed. I too have recently acquired a Paramount (from another forum member), a '72 chrome P13-9. It took a little detour to Waterford to have some new decals applied and while it was there, the chrome was brought up to a level that I'm sure can be scene from space. Otherwise very original. I believe the chrome Paramounts of this era were built by Don Maitland in Wisconsin. The quality of workmanship is certainly equal to any of my other handbuilts. It's still waiting for a touch or two to be complete. Once it is, I'll add it to the thread as well as Kurt's registry.
