Headlight resilvering, brass plating, nickel plating small parts etc.

I needed a small part plated for my car and contacted American Plating Company who I found on the internet. They advised that they also had resilvered headlight reflectors for old cars. I sent them my headlight reflectors for my 1928 Durant that were in good shape just needed to be resilvered. I sent the two reflectors to them and they did an excellent job for me. The price was reasonable about $51.00 a piece and they were well packed and protected upon return. I recommend them for some small plating of parts. Not sure if they are capable of any repair work prior to plating or how large a part they will handle, but for small parts I'd give them a call or send an email to inquire. They do brass,silver,gold, and other finishes. Their information is below:

Hi Wayne,

Actually this is the place on the forum where information like this is stored. Then at some point it will be transferred to the Parts and Service directly currently listed on the back of the membership roster.
