Thanks for your help. However wrong one. The correct one I believe is Lucas 25026. I did ask the seller if they might have one though......

   Not sure if this helps, but referring to:-
   
   Lucas  CE 852/63
   
   AC Ace Sports,  Aceca Coupe, Greyhound GT Saloon  &  Cobra

   
   The following Starter Motors were fitted:
   
   25532A/B,  ( M418G )
   25026H/J.      ( M35G-1)
   25065F......( M35G-1)

   Why three [?], Date Change [?]

   During last nights ACOC Council meeting, Barry Howsley made reference to your Thread on Bristol Starter Motors.
   
   Subsequently I received (26/02/16 - 09.10) the following email:-
   
   Morning Keith
   
   As promised, info on starter motors,  all from the " LUCAS MASTER CAT. 1945-1960".
   
   25532 B AC Engine "55/60"
   
   25065 B/E  Bristol Eng.  "56/60"
   25065 F/H  Bristol Eng.  "60 on.
   
   
   25065F     Fairthorpe  " Atomota" or " Zeta"  59/60.
   
   Early Bristol Eng.  (85 series) used 25006 but this is 2 brush motor NOT 4 brush as 25065, but still works.
   
   Hope this info is of help, I can always look up items if you want me too.
   
   Regards  Barry
   .

   Thank you Barry for your input,  much appreciated.[;)]
   
   Cheers

Unless you are looking for originality you might go for a high torque motor from
   for example www.wosperformance.co.uk
