The Wheel Specialist in Aberdeen is holding an open day on Saturday 11th Feb. They've invited members of the Scottish Capri Club along to view a demo of their wheel refurbishing process. The plan is to kick off about 9am. They're in Wellheads Cres, Dyce.
Anyone fancy coming along ?

Don't expect many Capris to be there to be honest !
It should be an interesting trip to see what they can do for our old scuffed wheels though.
See you there.

This is the company that refurbed my son in laws wheels and made an excellent job. ;D So hopefully they will impress us when we go on the 11th. |

The Guys at The Wheel Specialists put on a fantastic day yesterday ;D It was great to say the processes they go through to refurbish a wheel.  I think Dave's Ghia will look great with the refurbed wheels on it, there was one finished by the time we left and it looked brilliant. |

I can second that. It was amazing to see how much work goes into preparing a wheel before it gets powdercoated. I took a batch of photos showing progress through the various stages so you'll all see them soon.

One thing that struck me (apart from the high standard of their work) was how clean the place was. |

I think it must have been about 12:30 when we left. They were just closing up then.
