Can anyone help me? I can't seem to find one anywhere Sad

Also looking for a straight A35 grille, chrome surround (horseshoe) and also flying A. They don't have to be in perfect condition, just usable.

Thanks

Richard

I'll have a look. I am clearing out my Austin A40 stuff tomorrow and I'm sure there's an A30 or 35 grille. I know there's a low mileage gearbox; don't want one of those do you? eBay beckons.

Hi, I do actually need a gearbox as my synchromesh is terrible, how much do you want for it? How far away are you?

Thanks

Richard

Shame. It must be pretty bad! Does it have its badge by any chance?

Cheers, Richard

there isnt a badge or centre strip either, it came off the pink A35 I broke for bits donkeys back. Do they also fit A30s? if so it may have ended up on erindoors' car

Yes they do, strange they're so rare really! I have a very good centre strip, but no badge and a bent grille Sad

Hi Richard,
I've seen someone selling what to me seemed excellent repro grille badges for A35s at Beaulieu. Can't remember if it was in May or September, last year or this year. Looked in my program for September and found A30/35 O.C. Southampton & New Forest group had a stall there so maybe worth an enquiry on A35 forum?

Hi Andrew,

Already tried that! (I'm Richard-Essex on there). I think they sold out a while ago. I will make some more enquiries though Wink
