For my '64 convert, I'd like to send the wire wheels out to be repaired, trued, etc as needed. I see several places on the web that do that, including Dayton. Which shop or shops do good work?

Thanks,

They're probably all good but Dayton is the old timer and the big dog on the porch.

If they are true Kelsey Hayes 40 spokes wheels then Dayton would be the place to send them.  If they are 48 spoke wheels then I would look at just buying new wheel with Stainless Steel spokes.
