Title: Pressure plate rebuilders?
Post by: bwaz on September 23, 2012, 05:49:33 PM

Is there someone who rebuilds old clutch pressure plates? Mine seems to be original to the car, and I'd like to keep it if possible.

Gordon Rae clutch rebuilders on E 4th, it's been a few years since I've had them do any but they've resurrected some really rare and obscure parts for me in the past.

drove by Gordon Rae and it's empty. Tried to call and number out of service! I guess there weren't enough old clutches needing rebuilding anymore? Thanks for the tips

Awwww man!, that saddens me just as much as it does you, what a shame, that was an awesome shop.

I was told to try Berts Automotive on Kingsway... will stop by on my way home today.
