V8 nose cone and front wishbone


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi

I have damaged my 1996 seiw factory built and need some bits and general advice and this is obviously the best place to sort it hopefully.

I need front o/s bottom wishbone.

V8 nose cone or would consider any nose cone. 

Wheel arch. 

I have attached pics and wondered if it is possible to repair the fiberglass cone and arch.

Thanks in advance

Andy

Just bear in mind when looking at replacement bodywork, from the age and some of the chassis details I can see, this looks like earlier “Kit” Type bodywork, not the current ZK style, (which has been current since at least the early nineties).

A ZK ducted nose will look almost identical in photos, but won’t match your bonnet, and mounts differently to your existing nose cone.

Given the wishbone damage, check the chassis very carefully for any sign of distortion. This might be tricky with the tub in place.

Thanks for the advice Dave. It was only a light bump to be honest, but we have checked everything else very very thoroughly.

I was devastated when it happened... Only usually take it out in the dry but had  no choice and had to use it for work one day, heavy rain and light westi on a narrow country lane ended in an expensive meeting with a dry stone wall... 

£150 recovery plus parts... 

Back to fair weather driving after this..

I'm a long way from Barnsley.

Yes happy to sell one, what finish are you looking for and what type bushes? I've got most varieties of satin/gloss powder coat and nylon or metalastic bushes.

I would be looking for gloss and metalastic bushes, with a set for me to put in the opposite side to match. 

Could you msg me a price and details please.
