Looking for info and pics of ROTO-FLOW shocks

I'm looking for any info and pic's on Roto-Flow shocks.

Any help would be appreciated!

 

they say they were (used on '50s-era English cars....if that helps your search

 

I've been searching the net, and no luck!

 

they are expensive to buy and rebuild.... if you can find them.
the housings can be polished.
rod n custom did a feature on a remake of the Spalding Bros. 24 T track roadster which is running a set of roto flows.

you dont see them often on cars in old pictures, (at least in the couple hand fulls of vintage track roadster pictures ive seen) but the company has been around for a long time... i believe they made aircraft shocks during ww2 and adapted the design for commercial use after. it is/was a British company.... perhaps some of our limey buddies can chime in.

the shocks come in 2 different sizes... large and small.... the large ones fit '32 frames best.

 

Very nice! Thanks!

It's time for me to start looking for a set.

Thanks again!

 

I'm still looking for someone that can rebuild mine.

 

i believe there is guy in the san francisco area that rebuilds them, someone i know had his rebuilt and they worked great... i will be finding out more as time permits. seems like rebuilding a pair will be about $300.00 /pair

this thread has good information & links

Thanks. These are getting to be a pricey deal. Ahhh, the price of cool! I'll look for the info if you post it.

 

Did anyone find the company that pours the rubber for rebuilding the Roto Flow?

 

Here are a few pics of a model A1 next to an A2 for size comparison.
