    There was a fellow that used to advertise in Hemmings. You might check there. Then see if you can mortgage the house, it's not a cheap proccess. lol

    There are some adds in the Smoke Signal mag, let me check. And I dont' think it was crazy pricing.

    There is not any known reputable reliner that I've ever heard of.

    This is the new manufacturer for the 8 lug drums which is a very nice product: http://www.arrowheadcomponentsinc.com/

    There is also a new rim made by Retromotive available in 15x7 and other sizes.

    Tubby, That is good to know. The last time I priced re-lining it was $250 per drum (four or five years ago). I would gladly pay $335 for brand new. Hope they can hold that pricing for awhile. Thier site says they are having a pricing dispute with the local foundry.

    Good info none the less.

    The only guy that I even knew of that was relining them died a couple of years ago. And his reputation was not that good. I hope John @ Arrowhead gets his problems straightened out.
