The fact is that Danchuk makes a lot of reproduction trim parts for our cars and I need some....

What pieces do they make that are good or really good?

I've personally seen these parts and they are nice:



Hardtop door handles
'55 grill surround moldings (I was going to buy these or the Gene Smith version but ended up having my really nice originals re-plated because they fit my car perfectly)
'55 Parking light bezels


My list is short just because I don't have a lot of information. What other stuff does Danchuk do really well?
I'm not a Danchuk rah-rah, but this is not intended to be a bash-Danchuk thread, so please don't go there. This hobby would be a lot tougher and more expensive without them.

Danchuk makes some pretty nice stuff. I bought a hood bar and hood bar extensions from them and they fit better than my original ones. I posted about one good experience and one bad experience I had with them, which was brought up again yesterday.

I think it's hit and miss. You might get them to send you nice parts, or they might be junk. Their quality control is lacking, or their standards aren't very high. If you can, I 'd consider buying parts you can actually look at. Find out where they or one of their dealers is going to be at a show or something.
