Sun visor mounting brackets seem to be in short supply. Steering box worm gears too. Also, interior lamps, and mirrors.

Hi.

Our Spares Officer Peter Pescud is investigating the manufacture of parts for this item. Peter has asked if anyone has one lying around in their garage, could he borrow it please.

Unfortunately Peter does not have access to the internet so please either contact Peter direct (telephone number in the Horn) or post message on here and I will contact him.

What about the re-manufacture of rear hub pullers ?. If there is enough interest then the cost could be kept down. Does anyone have one to use as a pattern ?.
