Where to find parts

[thejimachine]

HI,

First post here, so be nice :p

My reason for this post is that i am hunting down parts for an Austin 10 Sherbourne that i am restoring for a friend.
I have hunted high and low and the best resource i have found so far was Alderton Austin, but i can't get any response via email or phone.

I was watching Car S.O.S today and they did an Austin 12/4 and seemed to find loads of parts from specialists across the UK. If i could find out where they went i'm sure i could find everything i need. It's been stored well and will only need perishables like bushes, tyres and such like.

Any info would be great.

Thanks

Jimmy

Hello Jimmy, you're in the right place! I say this because "Workshop Phil" (and Fuzz) from SOS are forum members, so if anyone will know where they bought their parts, thæ fellas will.

Oh really.. fantastic. Struck a good'n there then.
What are their usernames? Hopefully they won't mind me dropping them a PM?

Thanks for the info.

They are both very friendly and approachable, I doubt they would mind receiving a PM about the show.

Sure & a big star - like our Phil - would have a personal assistant to do that for him? After they'd finished peeling his grapes and pouring him a double Horlicks on the rocks..
