Rechroming

I am in the process of getting my 58' ready for paint this fall and will also send the chrome out to be redone. I am looking for a few quality places to get pricing from. Chuck Gongloff has provided me with Librandi's in PA. There are a few others which have been mentioned but could not find in a Search mode. Any help would be appreciated.....Jovi

Try Jerry Martin in Philadelphia. He did my 61 front and rear bumpers as well as the door posts. They came out absolutely fantastic. They were done about 4 years ago. They look as good today as they did then.

I use Spacecoast Plating in Florida for all of my chrome. Great company to deal with. PM me to get their phone number if you are interested. John.

Please let us know who you end up going with and how things work out. Are you planning on having you're trunk irons done ?
I would like to get mine done but and concerned about the quality myself.

thanks for the info and contacts. I have also heard Paul's in PA does outstanding work. However, I understand you need to ship them the parts first for them to give an estimate.

Yes, plan on getting the trunk irons done as well. I was more concerned about getting the originals back, but assume if you're dealing with a quality shop there should be no issues....someone has suggested engraving the serial # on the undersides of each part to make sure you do get the orginals back....
