Re: Randy gross brake drums
Had the same type of wonderful experience a few years ago.
We are indeed blessed to have so many wonderful Model A Supply and Service companies to meet our hobby needs for restoration. |

Re: Randy gross brake drums
dumb question: does he also receive your backing plates and line them up with the shoes/drums?
and yes, H.L., we really are fortunate to have a handful of real craftsmen and honest vendors, and numerous experienced, helpful Barn members. Lucky us, because we have issues with these cars that original owners never faced. |

Re: Randy gross brake drums
Attached (I hope) is a PDF file of an article that appeared in several Model A newsletters. It is a eulogy to Randy's late father Mel. Randy continues the cottage industry started by his father years ago. And he carries on the same traditions of quality work, reasonable prices, generosity and excellent customer attention.

Re: Randy gross brake drums
Tom----What a nice tribute to Mel, and what an interesting life he led. I also have a full set of his cast iron drums and shoes on my Model A; so nice that Randy is following in his footsteps.

Re: Randy gross brake drums
I have to say that Randy Gross and the company he runs is great. After reading here about his brake drums, and some positive responses from questioning some friends, I ordered four drums. The shop I took them to for swaging commented on how great they looked.
In the process, I needed a replacement for a hub, and Randy absolutely ben over backwards and went above and beyond to make everything right and was really great at serving the customer. You just don't see that much these days. Thank you Randy! Last edited by Magicbox51; 10-10-2017 at 12:54 AM. |
