Graeme, you beat me to listing Kilmartin.

I have purchased a set of front quarter panels from them and need to purchase a side-screen compartment.

John, are you home tomorrow (Sat), I am currently at Miranda (about 5km away)

The sketch pattern of the TF glovebox internals bounced back to me in the mail this week because I addressed it incorrectly.

Do you still have a need for them?

What a dope I am for I had previously asked the same question. That's the trouble when one starts to age. Oh well.

I will ring tomorrow morning.

Rod Brayshaw was being modest. He also sells panels and ships to Australia & elsewhere.

It is my understanding that Kilmartin is the best panel maker for our cars anywhere! Yes/No? PJ

Yep!

And they're Aussies!

Stuart,
The problem we encountered yesterday with the wiring of the horn has been resolved. The horn on the drivers side was defective causing the problem. I relaced it with another and all is good.

Seeing it's mainly Aussies here (OK 1 Kiwi) I am urgently looking for rear springs for my TC, any condition.

G'day Don. Just spoke to Bruce at Sportsparts in Sydney. Doesn't have any in stock but he can get them in. Usual comment "They're not cheap".. Also called Sports Car Spares on the Central Coast. He will ring me back. If he can help I'll post the contact details. Good luck. Cheers

Thanks Peter, I did try Sports Car Spares and you are right, they are expensive. It may be a last resort and I won't eat for a month!

The Hutson Motor Company. Ltd in the UK sells wood, sheet metal, up to complete bodies for TA thru TF.

I bought a complete TF body from them and it is perfect, even the doors fit better than factory bodies.

Thanks a lot Graeme, I will try the email contact. The 'Colin' in the West I tried over a year ago with no results or return call.

Hi Graeme, the email to Ian Cowen came back 'undeliverable'. Do you have any alternative contact?

Don

Pls check your emails, if I receive a reply I will forward it on.
G Evans

Don. Noel @ Sports Car Spares advised he can get them from England. They're $330 per side new plus whatever it costs to get them to you. Maybe they could be delivered direct to you to save a few quid. Dunno how that compares with Bruce's price. Anyway good luck.

There is a Dutch chap, Jan Gerards, I met at the Houten MG parts market who makes Body tub panels and wooden parts for the TC, TD and TF. The quality of the parts on display was amazing and the pricing was good too.
His email address is jangerards@hetnet.nl
