Machine Shop
Does anyone know of a reputable machine shop around middle TN that can rebuild a Model A engine? Can travel further if needed.

Re: Machine Shop
Brent Terry is probably your best bet. He's in Elizabethton? I believe.
I don't know if Michael Driscoll knows anyone, but he's on the western side. Red |

Re: Machine Shop
Guys I appreciate recommending me however we are well over a year out with a bunch already here on the waiting list. There is a good engine builder named Dennis Plank over in the Humbolt area however I have no idea what his backlog is either. PM me if you need his contact information.

Re: Machine Shop
Anyone have any experience with the "new" Antique Engine Rebuilding? They're in Bluffton IN, which is a day's drive from central Tennessee.

Re: Machine Shop
Try Schwalms in Strasburg,PA. Put your engine on a pallet and ship it to them if they are not too far out.Sometimes they have exchange engines. They are in Hershey for the show right now.
