    Fire destroys plating business used by Nebr. NCRS

    Fire destroyed Omaha Antique & Job Plating in Omaha on Friday 10/26.

    I personally used Val and Joe Chickinelli's place to restore 29 pieces of my brightwork on my 1963 SWC Fuelie and buff out the value covers and FI Plenum. My father has known Val for over 50 years.

    This is a big loss to the restoration community. They performed work for many all over the world which I was unaware until this story was written.

    Others in the Nebraska NCRS have used the business for their restoration work too.

    I thought others may want to know.

    Jack, Sorry to hear about the fire at your favorite platers. Reminds me of something that happened to me about 10 plus years ago. My family and I were eating some Chili for dinner and had the 6:00 news on. All at once they reported a big fire going on in the Pittsburgh area and wouldn't you know it was where I was getting cadmium plating done. I remember choking and just about having a heart attack as I had boo coo customers FI parts there. I was a nervous wreck all night as no way could I have replaced all those parts. So the next morning I drove to the platers and found out that most all of my stuff was saved. So many platers have fires and when they do it is the last one they have as it's all over especially with all the chemicals they use.
    Today I am especially careful about not giving the plater too much at one time as you just never know. JD.
