SP250 Exhaust Manifolds and distributor needed.

Post by Feathers »

Hello All.

I need 2 sets of Exhaust manifolds and one distributor.
They would have to be sent to New York in the US.

Kind Regards
John

I think Robert Grinter used to get them cast. There was a slight issue with getting a small batch cast which has prevented them from being cast in recent times.
It might be worth asking if he has any plans to get a batch done.

Thanks Marcel

I asked Robert and he said they are not available.

John,

Give John Carey a try in Mass USA, he has a lot of spares for the SP's.

New England Restorations is his business name from memory, and his email is daimlerusa@yahoo.com

John has helped me a lot. That's where I try first.
He sold the last repo he had to a friend of ours.
The same friend said Manners was going to get a batch for the other one.

Best Regards
John

I have just realised that it was Barry Thorne who had the patterns for getting them cast.
