I talked to him last December about my 71 Charger R/T and at that time he was too backed up and wasn't taking on any new jobs. I ended up going to Mike Mancini's http://www.instrument-specialties.com/ and was very happy with the results.

I had a similar problem, all of the commonly recommended instrument restoration companies were to backed up. I contacted Frank Chester at Vacuum Orna Metal and my dash bezel in my 71 bee is Factory Fresh. You will not be disappointed. Phone 734-941-9100 or www.vacuumornametal.com

How about Redline Gauge Works? They did my Rallye gauge cluster for my '70 Challenger, and did a terrific job.

Just a "FWIW"...regardless of whom you have do the work, most will have anywhere from 60 days and up to 3 yrs guarantee of the instrument rebuild/calibration, if it sits on your shelf after the warranty period (usually the warranty starts after you receive it back) and you decide to install it, and things are not working properly your SOL in most cases, so plan your cluster rebuild in a timely manner

I've used Instrument Specialties for my last two and they came out fantastic (and correct!).

Correcto..
Red Line does a nice job & prompt turnaround...
When the dash is pulled out be sure to update the voltage limiter to a solid state version, much more reliable..

Just my $0.02...

just got my cluster,lower panel, and heater control back from Dave Patik at Performance Car Graphics. Very pleased with them. A total of a 4 week turn around. i'll get them installed this weekend.
