Has anybody any of the following they might be prepared to part with, or could point me at likely sources please?

12" steel wheels

Headlights (think these are 5" either sealed beam or lenses and reflectors separate)

Wing mirrors and glasses both sides

Thanks

Hi, Chris, yes you got me. I thought the lights were only 5". I got some new refelectors and I am sure they only measure 5" or at most 5.5".

The American option was a Lucas sealed beam unit but the part number is no longer listed and mine has lights which are made up of lots of separate bits. I don't suppose it would be difficult to change to a sealed beam unit, but remember, mine is a polycab so might be different.

Next job is to get them out. The bolts are all rusted so it probably wont take long, they will just snap off. Then I can measure everything properly.

I've got the brakes done, they have come up a treat, so at least it stops, and the handbrake is really solid too.

Cheers

Nige
