Gauges refurb???

Post by Robind »

Last time we used a great guy in the Netherlands but he has now retired, getting no response from Reap Automotive and don’t really fancy sending them to North Hollywood Speedos, anyone else out there that refurbishes classic 911 gauges??

I've just had a very positive experience with Waldek of Classic Auto Clock. Waldek used to work at North Hollywood Speedos and now lives in Poland.

John Ostik did mine very quickly efficiently and cost effectively building I had to buy bonds bezels from Germany because he thought were too expensive to stock.
