    Champion Chrome Plating

     



    After repainting the Bently The front bumper guards ( ovreriders in the shop manual) needed to be rechromed. A friend suggested Champion Chrome plating in Houston Texas. I called and talked to the owner,Bobby Baker and he said he could do them for $100. I thought that was a good price considering that the old chrome had peeled off and they were very rusty. I know the surface has to be polished to prefection before it can be plated. I sent them out two weeks ago and they came back yesterday. They look great and he only charged $100 like he said. If you need some plating done I highly recommend them. The phone number is 713-671-0100.
    The address is:
    Champion Chrome Plating Inc.
    242 McCarty Dr.
    Houston Tx. 77029

    But do you have any Grey Poupon!!

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Of course. I always keep a jar in the built in bar. After "what year is it?" it's the most FAQ.
