Curious if anyone has used http://www.restorationchrome.com/ for any chrome restorations. They are located in Mead, Wa near Spokane.
I noticed the price for fixing and re chrome 64-65 falcon bumpers is 350 each.

Check with Art Brass Plating. They also have a flat rate for straightening and chroming bumpers. I think I paid about $350 each for mine.
I have no experience with Restoration Chrome.

Getting all my chrome ready to take down to Art Brass.
Is there a secret to taking the post out of the door handle button? Or is the whole assembly plated together?
Same for the outside door lock...do I take in the entire assembly?

do you mean the button you push with your thum ? yes it comes out, once it's off the car you will see. for one thing there is a o ring in there. the lock is stainless like jeff said....jh
I meant to post this the other day, and it slipped my noggin... you may want to opt for new door handles, etc, rather than the expense of rechroming them. I did a little tutorial on this a couple years ago:

Yikes, rechroming them is expensive.
Thanks for the info Roger. Interesting- my front ones have the S shaped posts, like in this link:
