Advanced Plating to Host 2019 Nashville Nationals Kickoff Party at New Facility

The brightwork experts at Advanced Plating have had an eventful year. The company suffered a tragic fire last August that destroyed much of its Nashville, Tennessee facility. That setback has led to a new beginning, as a new, larger facility in nearby Portland, Tennessee is being renovated and set up to serve customers better than ever.

In fact, Advanced Plating is committed to continue their tradition of hosting a kickoff party for the 14th Goodguys Nashville Nationals on May 3-5. The new facility will not be up and running at 100%, but they’re inviting everyone over for an exclusive preview of their new location.

Rest assured that there will be cool cars, great food (barbecue, jambalaya and boudin), and energetic live music. There will also be tours of the new Advanced Plating facility which is quickly nearing completion and will be back up and running soon pumping out quality plating work.
