Fuel Coupe Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 With the recent fallout on the Arrowhead thread its come to my attention that there arent too many aftermarket parts venders around anymore. S&S Specialties was one of my favorite companies to buy photoetch stuff from. Now, Gone... I found Arrowhead must have bought up the S&S negatives as they had alot of there stuff under their logo. Now, Questionable. Machined Aluminum Specialties. Probably some of the coolest stuff out there. Photoetched wheelie bar kits, Blower drive sets, Complete detailing systems for blown and Nitrous pro mods. not to mention the wheel sets. No longer taking orders. I realize alot of it is economy. I guess what I'm asking is who besides Detail master and Model Car Garage is still doing this stuff. Im in need of Machined aluminum Blower drive sets and not too many folks are doing them anymore... Whos machining wheels JPS, who else. Detail master doesnt have a supplier for their wheel systems and stock has dwindle to nothing. As some of you know Im a bit of a detail junkie. I need my fix!!!
RodBurNeR Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 Bob Dudek.....get you sum! http://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc...-dudek-machine/
RodBurNeR Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 umm Mark, Bob does not have a site.....but if someone needs something , they can contact me.
RodBurNeR Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 HMM... well Bob has been a machinist professionaly for over 40 years. His skill is unmatched, i have had product from all over and there are no parts comparable as in "identical". Not arguing, but i know Bob personally as we are related and i am not saying all this because of that... He always tries to offer product that is not made by anyone else, and if it is....his is more accurate and cleaner machine work. (this is also not a bash to any other maker)... Bob uses top quality machinery and his aluminum is T7071 which is well.....HARD and can be polished to the likeness of chrome. (same aluminum found in drag racing parts, car rims, tools and guns) the harder the aluminum, the smoother the initial finish from CNC and Lathe work. Aside the "quality" of the aluminum....the finished product is what counts right? How nice is it to have a set of lake pipes with opening dumps that are actually hinged on bolts with hex nuts? Just some info for ya OH....and before i forget....what about RB Motion? I know you all have seen his stuff on ebay compared in photos next to pennies or dimes.....super small parts and extreme quality also! Check his stuff out .... He doesn't have a web site. http://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc...bmotioncatalog/
