Yes, they resleeved my '67 Mk3 brake M/C and did a fine job, however, their
turnaround was slower than quoted.  It took them 4-5 weeks to have the rebuilt
M/C back to me. My only beef is that when they sandblasted the M/C, they also
did the aluminum cap, which gave it a dull, rougher textured finish that I
really didn't care for at all.  Next time, I'd send it without the cap and
call them to keep them on schedule.  But I *would* use them again...

Take care,

  Has anyone had any work done by Apple Hydraulics? I need to have a clutch
  master cylinder resleeved. It's for my Saab Sonett - it's ALMOST identical
  to a Spitfire one, but not quite close enough to be interchangeable!
  Unfortunate since a Spitty cylinder is $80 brand new and the Saab one is
  $275! Both Girling.
