Joe Munoz (Cost-Penn on this site; doing another frame off restoration on Classic Oldsmobile) used the above to repair his speakers. I have heard nothing but good things about the quality of their work. I don't know costs involved.

Hey...call me crazy, and there aren't a lot of people fussier than me. But why would you recone an old speaker when you can buy a new better sounding repro from turnswitch.com, that has a modern magnet for less bucks? Maybe I could see doing a rear, because of the "look" and the single wire. But they have a rear that will work, also. It's all I run in my cars now.

 

Incorrect physical shape and impedance, usually.

 

No, these are a compatible impedance and shape. The rears are the correct shape to fit, but the magnet looks different. They fit the factory bracket. Look at the website.

 

I bought factory repos from turnswitch for my 76 Cutlass as I wanted to keep my 8 track player. They have the 8-10 ohm replacements for just about any car. Great guys and very informative.

 

I looked. Impressive. They even can replace the angled Chevelle dash speaker. You're right, maybe there is no reason not to replace.

 

that is what i'am doing the rear for the look
thanks ray
