Re: Project "My Happy Mess"
Litew8, I used a place just off NE14th st behind chrome reflections a couple blocks. I can't remember their name. They charge by the line to dip. Everything I had done turned out great. You might call Art and see who he was using. He has been getting some stuff done lately.

Re: Project "My Happy Mess"
Ryan, maybe it was called D&J's? I went ahead and took a few parts to Barrett's. $50 for two hood hinges, spare tire holder and two small tailgate peices. zinc black chromate plating. He said it'd turn out more of a matte black since the peices were sandblasted. Perfect

Re: Project "My Happy Mess"
NE 60th, Des Moines. http://www.barrettplating.com/ They almost didn't do it, until I said I'm not looking for 'perfection'. My guess is they've had bad times in the past with auto restoration parts not meeting customers expectations. I just want the stuff protected (other than paint) and somewhat near stock looking.

Re: Project "My Happy Mess"
Thanks cheby! The cool manager at Barrett Plating changed his mind and only charged me $40 (instead of the quoted $50).
