Default Is anyone got a 340 for little bits?

I need a couple of items, sort of thing you can't get from suppliers. But if anyone has a non-runner that they wouldn't mind taking from, here's what I need:

Front grille - there are two little sprung twist latches that secure it in place. I need one.

Radiator clamps. Rubber seats that hold it in place. I need a set.

By the handbrake are some blanking plates. I need one.

As you can see, nothing crucial, just annoying little bits.

Wow...

BKV contender??

I know on my cars, things like that would stay on the "to do" list for ever!!

Good to see a 300 receiving such treatment though, especially a DL, quite a rare beast now

Actually it's a bit of a money grabber at the moment. After expensive paint repairs to bonnet and boot, it popped its radiator. Ungrateful beast!

Looks nice though.

I thought it was a late one.

What puzzles me, if I look at a MY86> car on the VIDA, the turn peg and spring is blanked out. I'll have a look at the MY89 car I have.

Don't hold you're breath though. I'm notoriously slow at getting things done.

Lates have spring twizels at each end and a pop pin like the interior dash panels in the centre MP.

I think "Twizel" is my new favourite word!
