That was quick. Glad someone gave them a home.

Thanks for the tip off.  Got 'em.  They are on their way to the US for #213.  

It's about time I started thinking again about mounting the body and doors.

I just got a shock because I thought I'd bought them too! Turns out I have the front set and you have the back set, Dean. One of mine is broken, and I was discussing where to find them with Nige only last week when I popped in to see him while passing

Thanks for spotting them Gary

Dave

Dave,

I am hopeful what I bought is what I need????  Happy to swap parts so we both end up with doors that close and don't open in the twisties. 

Have a safe trip home.

Dean

My parts arrived today - and they appear to be just right, albeit very grubby.

Ah yes.  Mine came as well and are equally soiled and painted to boot, but they do look like a direct match.  Gary - Thanks for the tip!

Glad they are of use.

The new issue (207 of Classics Monthly) has my guide to refurbishing the mechanisms.

All the best, Gary

I used a small hobby drill with a cutting disc mounted on a flexible shaft to get up inside the wheel arch behind the B-post.

Taking a photo at the time was the last thing on my mind. I was focusing on not losing my Dorian Gray face or part of it if the cutting disc let go...

I thought I did show a photo in the mag of the back of the B-post once I'd removed them?

All the best,

Gary
