428 Frua Forum / Re: AC 428 parts available?
« Last post by shep on April 08, 2024, 21:56:44 »
Hi Hans, or is it James?

Sorry but I checked my emails and can't find any reference to your request for parts. I have had a number of exchanges of email with James P but he was looking to sell parts from 3 Frua chassis. I wonder if you have my correct email address which is published in ACtion and has never changed. As Terry said there was a spares list in the Feb 2023 ACtion and if you would like to send me a list of parts you need I can quickly confirm what is available either from the Club or from other sources. As I'm sure you know, we ACOC officers are all unpaid for our services to the Club and its members. The Essex barn is over 3 hours drive from my home so any visit is likely to involve 8 or 9 hours which is a big commitment for me. If you would like to meet me there with a trailer, I will be happy to give my time to help load any you parts you need once we confirm they are available and we have sorted out payment.

Good to hear you are cracking on with your project and I will be happy to confirm progress in the Frua register if you let me know chassis number etc.   Andy.

A friend brought this to my attention (see link below). It might be of interest to someone. I have a feeling that the vendor lives less than a mile from me, so if I can be of assistance please let me know.

Hi, have a pair of s/h handles. If you pm me I can photograph them for you. I suppose it depends how ‘new’ you want your car to look.
Regard.

Thanks guys for the support !

I finally find a pair from Hawk cars  :)

Just for information: Gery explained there is some shims in the ball joint so you can play with it to adjust the tolerance before moving to a new part.

My 1955 Aceca rebuild is progressing rapidly, but I just discovered that I do not have the window winder handles and knobs. Does anyone have a pair in good condition that they would sell?

Identical parts were used on the Aston Martin DB 2/4, and I suspect also on some other British cars of the same period. If anyone can identify other cars that used them it would help my search greatly.

Thanks!

Oops - Hi Terry,

Not been on the forum in a while (parents house to clear which took a year!).
Now getting back on track on my 428 mess.

Looking through Feb Action....... then noticed it was 2023 not 2024 feb and my copy of that is at my place in Ireland and I'm in UK, so won't get a chance to look at it for a week or so.

Did try to contact Andy Shepherd to go and see the bits in Newmarket but no reply so not sure how I go about making an appointment to get there so I know what could help my project?

Look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks
James
