Default 1962 S90 Cabriolet- looking for referral to refinish of my Factory Chrome Wheels

1962 S90 Cabriolet, Wheels are original to the Car and are in good condition but the balance of the car is special and I would like to have them refinished to the same condition. Any references would be greatly appreciated

Post this question on the 356 Registry. There are a few great shops in Calif that only do wheels. Bolton did mine quite a few years ago.

I always heard in the past Bolton's was one of the best. Year old post from 356 Registry:

"Boltons is now called Perfect Custom Made Wheels. Phone number (310) 819-6752.
I have had them chrome and rechrome about 10 wheels. Great results.
Reasonable pricing and good turn around. Javier is the contact there. "

Better get an extra set of wheels if you plan on driving the car while the wheels are at Harveys. He is great but has a backlog.
