Default Rad cap restoration
Since Joe Perri is no longer with us, any recommendations for restoration of RC15 rad caps?

Thanks, Bill W

Have an RC15 radiator cap myself that I would like to get restored, so I'm wondering as well.

Contact Mike. Handle here is m22mike.

Pretty sure he is doing them, and they look really good.

This is in fact true. His name is Tim Bartsch and he's located in Minot, ND. His website is

https://www.gen2restorations.com/

I have sent him a cap to restore so I will report back here when I get it back. I spoke with him on the phone and he indicated that he is using the same plater in Chicago that Joe used as well. You can also find some of Tim's other items on ebay, including voltage regulators. He sells under two different names.
