Custom Chrome bankrupt.........

[kiwidave]

almost.......essentially, they have filed for bankruptcy protection and are being bought by the Korean firm which has made parts and latterly RevTech motors for them since the 1980s.

But they are in deep chrome-coated doo-doo.......''assets of $40.9 million and liabilities of $189.7 million''.......hmmmmmm

No one does any work once they've handed in their notice.

No surprise there, esp over here. They have been getting harder & harder to deal with for a while. Parts never in stock, always back ordered. Very poor service. Not least.....Most of their stuff is junk.
We deal with Drag Specialties, who are soon coming to Europe. Thay are a large operation, & far, far better.

And they have a nice BIG Fatbook online.

on the flip side just about everything available in their catalogue is available in all the other catalogues
