Hello Jeremy, Bruce and Martin

Last year, when I finally brought my 80" home from my
mate's farm where it had lain for 15 years, one of the
first things I did was investigate the aluminium bits
while I started saving for the restoration. My car was
an absolute mess so it was no surprise to find that
all of the engine ancillarys were badly corroded and
past redemption. 

In a nutshell I have made; the thermostat outlet pipe,
the two inlet pipes which run from the manifold to the
thermo. housing, the badge, the throttle pedal block,
the temp. sender plate at the back of the head and the
steel inlet pipe from the radiator to the pump.

I have also made the thermostat housing, however, I
have yet to find a satisfactory way to seal between it
and the pump, but I am working on it. 

Now mindful that the rules for this site require no
posting of commercial messages I had better stop
there. However, if anyone would like a list of what I
can make, I am happy to snail mail them a copy of the
list with prices, as it is too big to email.

I apologise if this message has stepped outside the
rules of the site or if I have offended anyone, but
the intention is merely to help anyone who like me is
looking for parts that are hard to find.

I will try to post an article and pictures sometime,
but I am still working out how the site works and I am
not particularly deft in the use of computers, so it
might take a while. It is great to be able to talk to
you all!

Cheers Charlie
