ajax wheels shuts doors after 50 years

Post by chilly38 »

Went in today to see about getting some wheels widened, he said, ' sorry can't do it'. I thought that's strange, he said he's closing the doors today for the last time, time to retire. Good luck to him. Now I have to find someone else, bummer.

Here is the warning I put up a fair while ago.http://www.ozrodders.com/forum/viewtopi ... 37#p643437
Not enough customers so shut the doors.

Neway have also been going around the same amount of time. They have done all my wheels, but only because they were on my side of town and Ajax were on the other side! Hopefully Neway will keep going now, sad to hear Ajax closed, always had good reports of their work.
