Title: Inlet tube update.
Post by: tcom2027 on June 09, 2025, 03:29:41 PM
Good morning,

I was able to get a pair from John Gately. Not ungodly expensive considering their rarity and what they do. He has more.

AlCads didn't return my phone calls.

AllCads closed last December.  I believe one of their employees took over the business, but I am sorry, I have no further information about that.

There is an affable Spanish accented man called "Rigo" who has inherited, or somehow acquired Ed's inventory.  I was trying to find some post war Hydroelectric window door switches (that's another story at $350 to $450 each for used ones).  His phone number is 702 883 9018.  He seemed very nice, except for the prices on the switches

He's carrying on a family tradition. Toward the end when Dianne was handling sales prices were reasonable, However, given their rarity, especially for the low production models prices are going to be high, especially for the luxury marques.
