Classiccar Automotive, www.classicbrakes.co.uk

I spoke to Lee Cherri and Dave Palin at Donington, to arrange having the rear calipers refurbished, they have arrived back as new the turn around time has been two weeks, if you are happy with an exchange the turn around is a lot quicker, the price is £125.00 per caliper - I am well pleased with the result.

Nice Job! Is there a choice of caliper colours if you wish?

Cheers

Nice one John. They do look the part, looks like a very thorough job.
May use their services next winter.

no paul but while they are in your hand you could always paint them with caliper paint before reinstating them

it looks NICE!

isn't that the same price as the SJ refurb exchange calipers?

do they rebuild the caliper as well I assume? -- as it must be disassenbled to clean it up that beautifully!

yes Doug they replaced all the internal's, as a matter of course, they started by doing up l
Lotus calipers but now do mostly Aston and Porsche.

Beautiful job! I had my rears rebuilt as well and powdercoated red to match the front Wilwood's, all except for the e-brake attachment on the left.

Makes me mad though all the time I spent polishing and clearcoating various parts which were "whammed" in a nano-second by a careless driver.

Your car is a wonderful & unique colour.
