Chaps, Spent a bit of time trying to find Ally parts for the S series.

After a lot of searching and I have found a chap who used to supply parts to the TVR Racing Tuscans and so has said that if we send him a sample he can make anything we want, guaranteed!.

At the moment i am trying to gain interest on S Series specific gearing ally gear knob in the TVR style.. which he estimates could be done for around £20 each with a minimum order 40 pieces.

So two questions:

1) Who wants a S Series version of the classic TVR gear knob in aluminum with S series gearing on the top?
2) What have you been searching for aluminum part wise and never found? This is your chance to get it made...

Let me know and i can arrange the necessary...

Hi RIch , that's a great idea for ali gearknob , might be interested, as I do have ali one at present but seems to be powder coated black ... To match rest of cabin swicthes ..
The next question would be , would your guy be able to go the whole hog ,and make things , like light switches, and heater controls ..clock Dial facias , etc....that would interesting if possible ..like Leven used to make , or the S owner guy called Lee B....... Any way if poss all down to price ? at the end of the day...Bearing I'n mind S1and S2 or roughly the same dash , but as you probably know V8s and S3 are different ..


Cheers Kie

I'd be interested in a gear knob, but then I'd like an ally handbrake lever/cover to match too.
