The Librandi Advantage

About Us

From Basement to Blueprint

Our Story

Started in a basement with a promise: do it right, or don’t do it. Today that promise covers everything from vintage Harley-Davidson parts to Mack Trucks OEM lines — with the same hands-on pride.

What began as a humble family machine shop in 1972 has grown into one of the industry’s most respected plating and restoration companies. Built on hard work, craftsmanship, and a commitment to doing things the right way.

For more than 23 years at our current facility, generations of hands-on expertise have been combined with advanced production capabilities — traditional craftsmanship meeting modern efficiency. One principle unchanged: quality should never be compromised.
