Clock Doc?

I had a guy I found in Hemmings years ago that fixed gauges and clocks, his company name was Clock Doc. I found his contact number today and some guy answered and was pretty bothered that I was looking for him. He said he has had that number for about 10 years and people still call it.
Anybody know what happened to Them?
Is there another outfit that repairs tachs, gauges and clocks that is reputable and does nice work?

I just used Redline. My gauges were off and the clock did not work. They came out looking mint and work great. Quick turn around. Nice guy.

Clock Doc in Tenn?

If the Clock Doc you are referring to is from Tenn, then I know who you are referring to (I used them a few yrs ago, did great work, including reproducing the correct factory looking stickers). But, that guy charged me huge $$ for his work.

Seems to me Clock Doc was in Winston-Salem NC but retired from it sometime in the late 90s. Whether he sold the business I don't know, but I do remember the last quote I got from him on a quartz conversion being pricey. That was more than ten years ago, so the phone company is more to blame than the old number's customers. They don't know what's changed when they call looking for service.
