yep autofast told me yesterday that they are discontinued so they cannot order more at the moment - he is looking for a new source but he didn't sound very hopeful, on the phone.

I bought a new one a couple of years ago from a Leyland Daf dealer but he had to order them in, presumably from the same source?

I have no idea where else might have them.

Mne is only cracked so I'll be out with the superglue. The next step is to find an alternative that fits the space (or change the space to fit an alternative, I suppose)

TVR Carparts have some. I brought one off them last week. About £20. I don't have the number to hand. I'm sure someone will have it's the lot down in Devon

Afternoon all.

Had a quick google and a chat with a chap at a place called Sherpa Spares based down in Essex. Unfortunately he doesn't work on part numbers, only models so does anyone know what model of van the units came from?

If we can figure it out and he has some in stock, I don't mind taking orders as I'm heading down that way on Saturday to get a new hood and (assuming he's open) I'll pick some up for distribution at SCH.

Edit: Don't worry, found it - Sherpa 200 '76 - '86

Heading to place in Leigh-on-Sea called Hoods Galore. They gave me the best quote by far. I'm only getting the rear section done as the panels are OK but the all in price including the panels was the best I had too. I'll post some pictures of the work on Saturday.

DougC,
How maney indicator lenses did you get on Saturday? And how much?

My S3C has same problem and I have been trying to locate a pair of front lenses for a while.
Can't make SCH but if you are on route from Heathrow to Norfolk on Thusday night you could make a sale.

Hi guys. Sorry I didn't come back to you on this. No luck I'm afraid - the sherpa spares place drew a blank. I did get a mail back from TVR carparts however and they have them in stock so give them a bell on the number in this thread and they'll get some out to you.

Apologies for the false alarm!
