haggis Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Hi all, been trying to source a part to get my sunvisors on, anyone got one of these lying around? Part no 710061, think it was fitted to early spitfires too. It’s the bit that fixes to the roof with two bent pivot bars attached, or anyone know of another type that might fit? It’s a long shot, and not 100% sure the forum is meant for this but worth a try. Thanks hag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AidanT Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hi Hag There was one of these I'm sure on fleabay but it was a few weeks ago. I always try spitfire graveyard if there are comparable spitfire bits Aidan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 They are tricky to find, they are shared with TR's..... I have a vague memory the brackets are the same as early saloons, may be worth checking that out as a possible source. But I repeat, only a vague memory!

Colin Lindsay Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Must be early TRs, the later ones have a different assembly. GT6 part number is 710061but I can't locate any supplier, other than breakers as Aidan suggests. Maybe the forum should have a 'parts wanted' section for hard to find bits?

haggis Posted February 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hi colin, now that is a great idea! I’m sure we all have boxes full of Triumph bits that could help fellow members out, what say you forum people? A bit like ‘parts wanted’ but on the forum? Thanks everyone for your replies, I’ll keep looking, unless someone has one they can measure I could make my own? Thanks hag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul H Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Agree "Parts Wanted" is a good idea plus another vote for spitfire graveyard well worth a call , recently purchased a steering UJ for my Vitesse and I wasnt sure the best way to fit and they sent full instructions Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've one fitted to my Mk1, a couple of screws undone and a handy camera will oblige. Let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AidanT Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Sounds good to me. I have many odds and sods where you could not just buy a one off like the boot cover catch clips - I have one as had to buy two for the one I needed!

haggis Posted February 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Thanks Colin, great offer, let me just do one final check with Triumph spares & spitbitz and if they don’t come up trumps I might just take you up on that.
