1966 442 dash needs restored

Not sure who to turn to now that Ron is no longer doing these. Saw an add in Journey with Olds magazine from Instrument Specialties Inc from N.Kingstown RI. Has anybody heard of these guys or have any suggestions?

Has Ron sold all of his stock, he may have one laying around that's done? Give him a PM.

From what I see, Instrument Specialties is kind of a middle man. Not really a one stop shop. They strip the dash and send it out to a place near me in Bridgewater, MA to get re-plated, then it goes back to them for reassembly. Sounds like a long ride. I have one for a 66 that is coming back from Ron next week. Standard dash (idiot lights, no rally pack) for a manual transmission. Let me know if you're interested.

I think he's on the fence for now. I know he posted wanting to sell his inventory.
