He sent it out 3 months after I sent mine in and had it back in 8 weeks. Looks good and works perfectly. I would certainly consider him. The Chinese boosters Ames, Classic, and Inline Tube are certainly a bargain at around $150.00. About 1/2 the cost of having an OE one rebuilt. If doing a high point restoration, the color of the platting, Zinc Di-Chromate is too bright and too yellow. But for 99% of the cars out there, probably fine. I have to assume they function OK or the internet world would have told us. I personally have never used one.......yet.

I think this was the place where Steve G owned the company before it was sold to Mike. They always had a good reputation and am going to send mine there one of these days.
