There are, but when they start out saying it will take a year ( and then longer) its a non starter in my book

So Pete if it is a non starter then what do you do?  Do you just use reproductions?  I have originals that I would like to one day have refurbished so was interested to see an answer to this question.

I've used this company and was very satisfied.  They stay very busy, as they all do, so turn around time might be 2-3 month's.

I've never used this company, but they come highly recommended in the collector car sector.

ISI is the company I was thinking of....If you get something back from them in two months, then they have made some serious changes to the way they were doing things.

Personally, I am not dealing with vendors that cant do things in a timely manner, doesnt matter if its dashes, paint and body work, fan clutches, chrome plating or anything else.

People need to stop tolerating that nonsense in my opinion
