I have just bought a 1977 XJC, I need some spares for it. I'm near St Albans Hertfordshire.

Does anyone know a supplier of parts please.

Hi,
Initially I need a set of HT leads, a water pump and a radiator.

After that plenty of bits for the interior and a bloody good auto electrician by the looks of things!!!

Apologies for the thread resurrection / hijack but my title would have been the same.

After watching the Harry's Garage videos on his XJ-C I finally (after 4 years of inaction) decided to get my finger out and finish the work on my coupe.

I'm now refitting the interior and at this point I know I am missing at least the following;

Driver's side rear armrest shiny chrome piece that covers the screw.
Passenger side rear door-roll support - its the piece that is riveted to the top of the frame and holds a seal for the window, the door roll then slots on to some pegs on this.
One of the parts that slots in the hole in the rear side panel where the seat belt comes through.

I could be missing some more chrome pieces for the rear windows but not sure if I imagined these as I can't find any pictures of the rear interior, if they are real they would cover between the rooflining and the window seal - ts possible that it is furflex that goes here but it would be great if anyone could confirm.

I know its a long shot but would be great if anyone had broken a coupe in the past and had these parts for sale.

Many thanks for reading.

These bits are rare as rocking horse poop. I found the one I was missing on ebay eventually in Australia and it cost me about £50

sorry can't help with parts but here's a gratuitous picture of mine taken 1992 after a complete rebuild.

included in the build was a new rear quarter panel (prob the biggest car panel ever!) which I recall cost £69! - god knows what one of those would cost now -? I cut the old rusty side off and welded the new one on whist it was parked in that drive way in the picture. all new chrome etc

You cant get them now although there is the odd new old stock one floating around. The last one I saw was £2500!!!

Thanks Craig, strangely I was originally missing the nearside one of these trim pieces and after watching Ebay like a hawk got a replacement from Australia also - unfortunately in the many moves I've lost the other :-( My car was being done when you originally sent yours to be restored - it was the one with the colour change to the colour you were changing from - we should have just swapped!

@Tye Green, nice. gotta love a photo so here's one of my in-progress interior. New door cards being fitted with re-coloured trim (changing interior from Green to Back)

PS - I briefly had a 'can you identify this part' thread - but of course immediately I posted it I knew where it went hence post now deleted.
