I actually dropped a radiator shell off to Saginaw Plating. But then found out he shipped it to Craig and charged a percentage for basically handling it. So now I mail or UPS directly to him. I have had customers drop off their own pieces and pick them up from him. He does EXCELLANT work and is very fair with his billing. You can email him at carsrule@embarqmail.com

I was going to mention Craig.... but he's already been brought up. He only deals with antique / classic car plating, so they know how important it is to retain imprinted logos, numbers etc. He'll be at Hershey I believe the spots are CY26-28 (I go with him… ya think I'd remember), you could save shipping by dropping off there.

By the way, Craig"s cell is 419-290-4442. If you're not going to Hershey, and want to deliver, he's only about 2 miles from the Ohio / Michigan line, Sylvania is a suburb on the west side of Toledo.
