TriCity did my rear bumper. It looks better than brand new. No imperfections anywhere. They only do bumpers.

I would like to do the quarter glass weatherstrip chrome. Does anyone know a shop that does good work on smaller parts?

I contacted a company 18 months ago about doing the louver inserts, and hood and fender emblems. I don't recall who I asked back then, but their prices were rediculous.

I have used these guys many times for various parts. Real quality work and quick (two weeks in most cases) turnaround.

I found a company in Texas that restores the 8 track face plates. They rechrome them and refinish the front plate. I recieved a pic from Tony ( Owner Tony's Auto Classics ) of the end product, and it looks excellent.... I'm planning on sending mine out soon to be restored. If anyone is interested you should email Tony at the following email and I'm sure he will send you a pic of what the face plate looks like restored. The cost is not bad he quoted me about $50.00 to rechrome and $47.50 to refinish inner black area. If you email him, tell him I referred you ...

His email. shelby1968@tx.rr.com

ABC Custom Chrome in Waterford, MI. $200 to deplate, restore and replate a heavily blistered and bubbled convertible windshield header, but OH so worth it!!!!!

They do small items up to bumpers, motorcycle frames, etc. Fast, too. And the low end is what most call "show" chrome...the high end stuff is indescribably beautiful.

And they give a lifetime warranty.

248-674-4333 Bob runs the shop.
