Re: Daimler V4.5 (1937) looking for keys, rims, ....

Hi Michele,
A friend of mine has some wheels as a spare for his Str8.
I will ask him if he will part with one.
Sad about keys. Have been to Jaguar Soares Day two weeks ago and there was. Stall holder who had plenty of old keys.
We bought all the keys for our cars.

Re: Full body rubber set

Ronni I think you are looking for a full door seal set. If so ,don't go to buy a complete set for the doors. There are different styles of rubber from different supliers on the market.

Re: V8-250 Saloon Tyres

The Michelin Tyre is good for the V8 250. also it fits into the spare wheel compartment. Lots of other brands with that size do not.
There is also the Vredestein Sprint classic tyre on the market.

Re: Ben Mason, Balfour Mews, Lower Edmonton, UK

Hi,
I should have some photos of Ben Masons yard which I took in the late 70ˋs.
If I find them I will send them to you.I am not able to post them here.
I can remember a lot of lock up garages with parts and plenty of Daimlers in the yard.
