Driveshaft Plastic Restoration
In the process of a frame off of a '70 Olds W-31 and would like to find a source that can restore the original driveshaft and replicate the plastic "injection" for the u-joints. Anyone have a source?
Thanks

Anymore I do not know of anyone restoring driveshafts after Quanta Restorations quit doing them. When I restore ours I heat up the whole flange area and then using a hot glue gun I inject the plastic in until it come out the other side. This is done purely for aesthetics as the replacement u-joint uses an inner clip to hold it. I also add a little color to it to maintain the original appearance.
