Fan Clutch Rebuilds

[Angelo F.]

There was a member from Rhode Island who advertises rebuilding fan clutches in The Driveline. His telephone number doesn't appear to be working or is disconnected. Does anyone know if this person is still rebuilding fan clutches or perhaps would know another telephone number for this person. Thanks to anyone who can help.

I think you are referring to Vinny at Pampered Vettes. I found two phone numbers for him: one is (401) 339-6012 and the other is (401) 253-3356.

Hopefully one of these will work.

Thanks Larry, I give those numbers a try tomorrow morning.

Angelo,
I 've had Oliva and Vinny do clutches for me. The cosmetic quality of both is great. Vinny claims to use a bearing that is superior to Oliva's and he claims to re-crimp the circumference and apparently Oliva does not. I don't know exactly what that all means but it sounds good. Vinny has a much quicker turn around time and as I recall is slightly less expensive. With the difficulty in dealing with Fred Oliva regarding time and communication I personally would use Vinny.
