8-Track refurbishment

Post by argonauts »

Can anyone recommned someone to refurb 8-track units other than Agenta Audio. I had a chap in the Midlands called Warmsley Classics (Roger Beasley) who was good but he seems to have disappeared/stopped.

I believe Roger Beasley retired.
Sorry I can't help as such but strongly suggest that you DO NOT use The Vintage Wireless Company in Cheshire, if they still exist.
They had mine for nearly a year and charged a lot for the pleasure...

That was probably Adrian James. He restored and upgraded the Javelin radio/cassette player in my GT in 2015...
