    I will be headed up to Elizabethton TN on Thursday, August 8th, with a stop at Tri-City Plating on Friday August, 9th, to drop off a couple bumpers for re-chroming.

    I am willing to take your bumpers with me, to save you the shipping cost. I ask that you “make you own deal” with Tri-City Plating, prior to me taking your bumpers. I am leaving from Tampa FL. travelling North on I-75 through Gainesville FL, over to I-95 through GA and South Carolina, then over to I-26 through North Carolina and into TN.

    If you would like me to take your bumpers, or any other pieces in need of re-chroming, to Tri-City Plating, just send me a PM and we can work out the logistics. They are quoting a turn-around time of 4 - 6 weeks.

    They say 4-6 weeks but I've never had to wait that long. Say Hi to Chip for me when you get there.

    I will be getting off a cruise ship in Tampa early Sunday and will then head to Lakeland to fetch the bumper. I will then head your way, putting me in Lutz between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM. That work?

    Dropped my bumper off at 72 goat herder's place. I naturally drooled over his beautiful and obviously well cared for and loved cars, but it was his five garages and the two lifts that really got me.

    If he comes home someday and the cars are gone and his garage is empty, look for another suspect.
    But if the cars are there and the garages are gone, it was me.:D

    (or maybe a hurricane)

    Thanks, and safe travels.

    2manybuicks,

    It was my pleasure to put faces with names and talk cars. I will take good care of your bumper on it's trip to TN.

    Gonna pass for this trip. I'll wait until I get the car home abd then decide if anything needs done with the bumpers

    When I looked at the title of the OP, I thought the company was for sale.
