Members, need a favor if you can.

I found some rotor covers for the Buick today and would like to get them chromed.

I have no contacts or chrome shops in my area and thought if any members were sending parts out for chrome over the Winter I would send them to you.

Would like a chrome shop that does great work. Price no issue unless really absurd. (you get what you pay for right?)

I won't get them until next week. Let me know and I'll try to check PM's a little more often.

Should look killer when done.

Buick's deserve chrome!

I have mine polished now. (not this pic)

Looks OK but I sit in front of the airplane. Remember?

Agree. Just seeing if anyone knows of a good chrome shop I can send then to. Maybe Vegas/Phoenix/LA members will chime in.

Alternately call CRE Engineering and see if Chauvin or someone can recommend a "show chrome" vendor... (his cars are WOW's winners every year)

LOL Chauvin has won the World of Wheels thing more years.. His shop is aerospace related as well as DOD stuff.. his cars are machined from solid billets and just amazing things... I also got time at the Salt Flats with his cars... (ever seen a 300mph roadster?) I gained a lot of knowledge from these guys over the years.. Norm Drazy and Mark Niver were also amazingly smart guys I got to work with... very humbling when you have guys of this caliber to learn from...

Chauvin Emmons at the Bonneville Salt Flats one of Chauvins monoque roadsters he engineered, built, raced and sold...

On the other side of the country, but I have had great success with All Things Chrome. Haven't sent them anything in about 6 months and not sure about automobile wheels, but definitely worth a shot.

Good luck, John... Can't wait to see the pix when she's 'finished'.

 

[runeight]

Problem solved. Called my good buddy brendanp and he hooked me up with his chrome connection down Kentucky way.
