RE: Brake Drums

[Rich Kinsley <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>]

Gosh, I thought it was kinda expensive. It's a little shop with a couple 
older gearhead guys. They had been doing it as a hobby but finally 
started a shop about a year ago. They give you whatever color you want 
from their charts but some colors are more expensive. They do a few 
items at a time it seems to me and don't particularly do  "runs". They 
have a couple ovens I believe. One is very large and easily does 
motorcycle frames and the like. Of course they blast the stuff first. 
He'll do pulley's, door knobs, whatever. Their site is 
topdogpowdercoating dotcom . 13430 C street,  Omaha, NE 68144  
402-618-1685 (Mike) or 
402-669-2277 (Bill)

----
Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.  I.e., send parts/car transactions and negotiations as well as other personal messages only to the intended recipient, not to the Clubhouse public address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine tune the content signal to Mopar topic.  Thanks!
