RE: Bumber Re-chroming

[John <jswask@xxxxxxx>]

Ollie, When you say straighten how bad can they fix?  My rear bumper on the drivers side. is straight but someone backed into something and at is bent up alittle at the rise where the licence plate is. And the front has a indent where the old leather tow straps would be placed. I would like to get them straightened, but they still very good original chrome. Do you think there could straighten a bumper without rechroming them?? At least the rear bumper, as it  is the most noticable.  John Wask... 64 Sport Fury

Cannot remember the company name that did the work, but they were located in South Sioux City. Isn't that NE? They did an excellent job of straightening and re-chroming. I would highly recommend them.
