List of help received
« on: June 22, 2011, 12:32:40 PM »
I plan to list the valuable help and helpers here, once I gather them together. I think the people who have helped in this project have been fantastic and the least I can do is to pass on their skills and services to you, should it help.

Much help has come from many of you on the forum, thank you.

Others are:


Simon, Best British Classics, Worcestershire.
Autow, Banbury.
King Tools, Rushden.
SBS Trailers, Walsal.
Robanna Engeering, Burton Latimer.
Steve, S and C Electrical, Harlow.
Bilson Steel Supplies, Kettering.
Dowty, Worcestershire.
Fairline Boats, Oundle.
Brammar, Corby.
Pathe' News
Peak Trailers, Bideford on Avon
AWB Fabrications Ltd, Northampton
Metalfabs, Corby
Visual Performance
GFM (UK) Ltd, Wellingborough
Littleport Boat Haven
Hamilton Jets (UK)
Coging Motorsport, Wellingborough
Maylan Engineering Ltd, Corby
EMF Fastners, Wellingborough
Boris Blasting, Wellingborough


The list is longer, but I will update it and place contact details for them all soon.

Found a couple of new companies who might be able to help:

MetalFabs, Corby for sheet metal fabrication

Plastics company, who can make windscreens, but not yet met them and will post when I have visited them.

Hi Brian, yes Serck services are still going, they are in Southall I think? I use them for the classic car radiators, bespoke & aluminium radiators. they also can repair my intercooler ( or so he said! ). As for the Classic Ford gaskets & the like, I do have some contacts if you still need them ( they are at work & I'm not right now ) so let me know. I did build a Zephyr 6 cylinder engine once, the rear rope seal had to be so thight, we had to tow start the engine or they leak apparently ??. best of luck! Mark
If you don't know where to start... start somewhere, the rest falls into place.

Thank you. The engine is rebuilt and works nicely. I am looking to put a V6 in as it is an easy conversion
