Phil, see "British Car Magazine" Aug/Sep '97 p.48 for an article on getting
wheels refurbished. The author used Koch's Restorations (805)252-9264 in
Canyon Country,CA. He says price depends on the condition of the wheel (his
AH100 wheel cost him $150), excellent work, 3 to 6 weeks, guaranteed for 1
year. Looks like it's worth a check-out. No interest etc. on my part.
Cheers.
