All Activity

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome back. Car successfully collected today and 170 miles home (to do a journey that’s only 90ish). Covered in sun tan lotion, bugs in my hair and slightly deaf, but very happy!

I sometimes think that if I still had all the cars that we've had in our family then I'd be a good way on the way to being a millionaire. But then I remember that the reason that we got rid of most of them was terminal tinworm. So I'd not be a millionaire; I'd just own a very large pile of iron oxide.

May I have these please, thank you Simon 07752 069622

I wouldn't; you could loose the cars identity, for a road car you would then need to IVA again, which could all get very complicated. If the factory supplies the chassis, they can ensure destruction of the old one, and issue it on the same VIN number, not something any other company should really be legally doing.. If it doesn't have clear Westfield provenance in the form of invoices, AND looks different to a stock chassis, you may then get hammered on price when ever you eventually want to sell...

I had one of these in the 70s. It tried to kill me at least three times to my recollection. I bought it for $2,500 and sold it for the same when I couldn’t afford to run it.

Need to wait and see what they say, but a repair is out of the question and I'm not too sure about a new chassis with some new panels. The time frame could also be quite long and I wouldn't really want that, so miby the cash would be better. Just need to wait for their update.

Open to sensible offers

Hi! @SootySport Is mine an early Kit widebody? Considering the incident with my fly-off bonnet I had some years ago - would it be a wise investment to put this into storage for a "rainy day"? Or do body parts come up fairly regularly?

NO LONGER AVAILABLE.

If you have not already I'd be looking around to see what's available that matches the spec of your car so you've an idea of replacement cost when the discussion start. If they undervalue it as they are likely too then it increases the chances of it being a write off, a true valuation may make the repair economic.

Unfortunately this show has been cancelled please see information below from show organisers: ''Lincoln Kit Car Show Dear Exhibitor, It is with great regret that we announce that the Lincoln Kit Car Show has been cancelled. We had hoped that the move from Newark to Lincoln would have been a good one for the show but unfortunately there has not been enough interest from trade to justify running the show. We will still be running the National Kit Car Show in Malvern and look forward to welcoming you there next year on 30-31 May 2026. Kind regards, Grosvenor Shows Ltd''

Sorry to hear about you accident but glad your ok, I think if I were in your position, I would be looking to go straight to Siltech for a brand new chassis. Wait times aside, the quality is top notch

Needed more urgently please. Sadly I'm not currently in the position to be able to buy any of the complete hub / uprights / etc that people are offering. I just need one Westfield alloy hub preferably with studs, bearings, seal and cap.

I meant to DM you last night, see how you are getting on mate. Are you hoping to rebuild or would you prefer the dosh and find another car?

Anyone coming along tonight?

Had the insurance assessor in today to examine the car and he agrees that it requires a new chassis and body panels. He said he would try and price what the repairs would cost and then submit his report to the insurance company, so I'll just need to wait on the next update from them.

Love the plate! I tried to find a Carrot related one but couldn't find anything really good.

So, so true 😂

Too bad I'll be in the UK from the 12th.
