Default Re: Shock Rebuilder???

[ QUOTE ]
I agree, this would be a great business opportunity. I'm currently restoring a 1956 Mercedes 190SL 2 seat roadster which is an untouched 50yr old 70,000 mile virgin which has been in the same family since new. I have all the paper work including the original dealer's sale's form. I do not want to use aftermarket shocks on this vehicle and new original ones do not appear to be availible. I suppose it's either get these rebuilt (but by whom) or just paint them and put them back on.

Thanks for all of your help!

Honestly, how many original "dated" shock absorbers still
exist? Everyone tossed them at replacement time. I would
honestly have to wonder the extent of the rebuild pool for
an item such as a shock.....
