1959 Windshield post repair - ?

[Dave F.]

My windshield posts are busted and I see in the major catalogs like Paragon and Corvette Central that they have services to repair the posts (vs trying to buy new ones for thousands of dollars).

I was wondering if anyone has had this service done and if the big companies are the way to go or do you know of smaller guy who can do this. I need to get the job done fairly quickly.

Thanks.

Call Paul Mazut 413-243-3439, he does a great job.

Jerry,

Thanks for the info. I called him yesterday and got a machine. I left my name and number, but have not heard back from anyone.

Does Paul do any re-chroming or just the posts? It turns out my posts are pretty nicked up, and also I need the posts fairly quickly, so I have decided to buy an already done set (big $$$) and then have my original set fixed up on a more relaxed time schedule.

Dave,

I had Corvette Central repair my 1960 windshield post and they worked and fit great. They came back to me in just under 3 weeks from the day I sent them in. Just last weekend I finished putting a new windshield and frame back together and on the car. We are out driving again.
