Replacing stolen/damaged parts

[woodman]

Hello,

I finally got Magnus back from the police today, so I've made an inventory of all the damage that has been done and the parts that have been stolen.

I've pasted the whole list here, so if anyone has any of these parts and would like to sell or donate, please let me know. (All postage and packing costs covered, of course). I'd like to suss out pretty swiftly which bits I can source from you folks and which bits I'll need to buy new.

Many thanks, Andy.

Pretty sure that I can help with some of the stuff that you need - I will have a hunt in the garage over the weekend to confirm what's there, but think it includes a matching pair of front quarterlight assemblies (i.e. still in their mounting frames).

Hi there is a chap called Neil mobile number 07931231932 based in Leicester that is breaking a 2 door car. I was there yesterday and got some stuff from him he has also got some parts already stripped off the car. I got a dash from him for £10 and various other bits and he wasn't dear. I don't know how far away it is for you by maybe worth a call.

Good luck

I have a radio blank if required. I will get a piccie tomorrow for you.
Possibly a complete dash panel and pad.

All based in North London though.

Hello Ken,

If we just go for the radio blank then that would be easy enough to post, I guess. I may be interested in the dash panel and pad if they're in decent condition - still considering getting a piece welded into my existing panel and respraying, though I definitely need the chrome strip in any case, and I don't think it would be wise to post that! I'm planning a road trip with an estate car the very first week of August, and a few kind folks have already offered me some bits, so it might be possible to include North London in that trip.

Many thanks,

Andy.

Hi Andy, I'm going to pop down to the garage shortly, I'll take a piccie and post it on here.

Hopefully no-one has parked in front of the garage!

Hello,

A big thanks to those who've already helped me with sourcing parts - it was good to meet you all on my grand tour!

There are some bits I'm still struggling for, especially:
choke knob/rod
auto steering column cowl/selector display
dash vinyl pad (I can buy new but we're sailing close to the car's value on the insurance claim, and this is the biggest single part cost at the moment)

I'm surfing ebay for stuff, but I'm also in the market for wing mirrors and fog lights (I stress fog, not spot).

I know the auto column cowl is rare - I'd consider importing from overseas if needs be.

Many thanks,

Andy.
