'64 spinner caps
 
I picked up a set of '64 spinner hubcaps. They are in nice shape, but have the usual dings and curb rash here and there. The spinners would need rechroming and I want to get the caps back to excellent quality. Who do I look for in the yellow pages for this kind of work? Am I looking at finding a plating company that will take such a small job, and a separate guy that can work metal? Any tips on where to start would be appreciated. - thanks

I have gone done this road before, and I found it was less expensive to find caps that were in better condition. replating the spinners alone will run you around $400 for 4. You will need to find a place that specializes in pot metal.
It will take a stainless guy to work out the dings, and that is also time intensive. Sometimes it can be done without taking the cap apart.
