Closest I could find who was good (and a good price) was in Richmond Virgina. Check the vendors section here on Chatter..

I have used Classic Chrome in Largo, work very good and priced reasonable. Slow, but good. There is another one that advertises in Hemmings in Lakeland that I have heard good things about.

Thanks everybody for the info and sources. I have heard so many bad things about other vendors so this should give me a head start.

Hey chevtrkmn,

Keep us informed on what dealings you have with what ever chrome shop you use. I might want to have a few items redone in the near future. I also live in the central FL area. Ridge Manor, which is about 60 miles west of Orlando.
Thanks

yes, Classic Chrome does have a Clearwater mailing address. They are on 49th street across from the jail.

Captain Harley

I'm still in the info gathering phase, but from what I see so far whoever I use will set me back a few bucks. It may be a while the way I spend money in little dabs, but I will be happy to let you know what I find out when I do take the plunge.

Thanks again

Chevtrkmn
