Bristol crank wanted
« on: March 06, 2013, 07:45:43 »
Hi all,
   
   A friend over in NZ with a Bristol 405 has a requirement for a good used/new large-nosed crank.  I undertstand Farndon sells new cranks at about GDB 1750 + VAT but does anyone else have a good used one/new one for sale.  Will consider from anywhere in the world.  Many thanks, glen smytheman

You should post this message on the Bristol Cars Forum as well. Good luck.

The only crank that I am prepared to let go is a Big nose which has been soft metal sprayed in some of the journals hence the price tag £300.However it would be fitted at the new owners risk. Rough measurements are 2.118 and 1.749 very approximate, it would require a grind.
   
   Other than that I would suggest getting one ordered from Farndon sooner rather than later, they are a good Firm and produce a good product but their lead times can stretch out.
