    Caliper Restoration

    Looking for any knowledge of anybody offering restored brake caliper swaps? On searches I have found restoration services but, not exchange programs for a 1973 S. Thanks for any leads.

    Eric Shea -aka- "Neunelfer" at PMB Performance www.pmbperformance.com is your man.

    I bought S Aluminum Calipers from him, beautifully restored. I installed them and sold my old ones back to him as cores.

    Eric really knows his stuff when it comes to caliper restoration. And he has passed his knowledge and gratitude to many members of this forum. I sent both my front S and rear M calipers to him and I still can't bring myself to install the front's . . . they are pieces of art.
