Hi Mike, I had some of my aluminum trim reworked about two years ago and they did a great job, came back looking like new. The company is located in northern Indiana. I have a 70 Chevelle Malibu that has the aluminum strips that run from the front of the fender to the bottom of the drip molding. In all I sent them 6 pieces and they removed all dents, scratches, and buffed them to a high shine. They would have anodized them clear for a fee but I did not have time to leave them to have that done. For all 6 pieces it cost $275 which I did not think was bad especially when these parts are not being reproduced by anyone. I had another place quote me $400 and to be honest I don't think I would trust him with my parts.(probably ruin them)
If you want to have your current piece reworked let me know and I will try to the names and phone number and send it to you. If you are looking for a new piece have you tried some of the restoration companies like Year One, or Ground Up, etc. Would they have that part? Good luck, Chuck Speake 1970 Chevelle Malibu Glen Ellyn, Illinois [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Holleman Sent: Sunday, October 28, 2007 12:48 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Trim needed Thanks Herb, I did not find it at Goodguys either.

It looks like your request for a trim piece got hi-jacked and turned into an oil thread. Oh, and sorry, I don't have the trim piece you're looking for. Herb _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Holleman Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2007 9:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chevelle-list] Trim needed I am doing the finishing touches on a 66 Chevelle (2 dr. coupe) and I'm having a time finding one little piece of trim. I need the ss weatherstrip trim on the pass side a pillar. I was able to straighten the original piece enough to use it, but it still shows some dents and takes away from the cars overall finish. Anybody got one or know where one might be found? I have already exhausted my normal sources. Thanks Mike Holleman _____ No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
