Replacement Plastic lenses - All makes!

Post by Johann65 » Wed 20 May 2009, 13:43

Oom Willie du Plessis from Vaal Old Wheels makes lenses that match the original ones. He also makes the famous "Blue Dot" lenses. Contact him through Vaal Old Wheels at the website: http://www.vaaloldwheels.org.za. I am sure he can help you. Look at 1960 Pontiac at the last VOW/MG club posting and see his handiwork!

Hi all

I contacted the guy that makes these lenses. You will have to give him a sample if he has not made a set of the ones you need. He is based in Van der Byl park.
I'm nervous to send my only lenses to him by post, if it breaks i'm stuffed. (even though its not in the best condition, i can't find another set anywhere at the moment)

Regards
Kavesh
