      Thought about it, but I've never done the horns, have you?
      Is it relatively easy to achieve a good result?

      Thanks,

      Steve

        I have not done them but I read the most recent restorer and it looks simple. I wouldn't hesitate to try one. I have a few ideas on how to work out the rivet issues, etc. Terry

          I read that also, which probably got me thinking about this project. The steel rivits and proper patern kind of intimidate me....

              The Horn Works did my 1965 horns. His workmanship is excellent and a quick turnaround.

                Do Archives Search...Ron Goralski...

                This subject was recently discussed.... Ron was recommended by several... Depends on what you are looking for.... I was told Ron's refurbish will have zero points deduction.... If that's not a huge issue for you... then there are several others. I am very pleased with mine!

                  I had Ron Goralski do my horns in Dec 05 and have been very pleased. His turnaround time, given the Christmas holiday, was very good. Rick

                    I had the Horn Works rebuild mine; they look and sound great. It took 10 days and the price was very reasonable. I don't believe Ron Goralski is still in business. PT

                      Ron is still in business and the work he did for me was fantastic. Nice guy too.

                        Hmmm. I would like to try it. If you had a vise and a drill press, you would be home free and a dremel tool. It looks like you have a lot of feedback. I believe there are a couple people that are rebuilding them. Sounds like they do nice work. Terry

                          Remember Rivets...

                          Again, if points is part of your consideration, the casing is rivited... you need to have a set up that you can acurately press the rivets without cracking the plastic casing... Good Luck. BTW.... I did mine with Ron Goralski this summer,,, turn around was fast..... You gotta believe in a vendor who will send the part back to you with an invoice. First time I have'nt been asked to prepay. Now there's a guy who believes in his work!! Sounds and looks GREAT!!

                            I got ahold of Ron Goralski, and I sent my horns off yesterday. A lot of people have recomended him so I thought I would give him a try. He did say he is doing quite a few horns right now, so he's a little back logged, but I'm not in too much of a hurry anyway.

                            Thanks for all the input!
