martyn wright Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Hi! Anybody know where I can get the "Top of Dashboard" metal "Finishers that go under the Air Vents? I have the centre bar but require both Curved Side Finishers for my Mk1 Vitesse? Rimmer Bros nor Canley have them? Many Thanks Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martyn wright Posted August 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hi All found a Breakers up North who wanted £130 for the Three pieces! Don't think I'll bother I will attend Stoneleigh in October! Thanks For your input! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Don't panic, Martyn - just pray for good weather tomorrow as if it's raining I can't move the GT6 outside to get access to the roofspace ladder in the garage. I should have some of those - SHOULD, I've been wrong before - but I think they're in the roofspace storeroom and so can't check until tomorrow. I'll confirm asap one way or the other. As long as I have a set for my own restoration... In any case Chic Doig will have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't panic, I haven't had the car back from the Sprayers yet? Many Thanks for looking for me! Cheers Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Have located two, a pair ie one left and one right, and made sure I still had a pair for myself. Worrying thing is that I don't have any centres! I'm hoping mine will turn up in a box of odd bits that I haven't checked yet. I thought I'd have more but the early cars don't use them, which explains why I've only got two pairs. (But have several sets of the curved dash corners the early cars do use) If you still need them, pm me; if not at least I now know where they are....

I did have the 3 x Finishers, but can not find the curved ends x2. How much do you want for them? I am going to Stoneleigh in October and will keep a look out for the straight bar if you whish?

Colin Lindsay Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Just confirm it's these two guys in the photo? When you say you have the three finishers but not the curved ends I'm hoping you mean you've mislaid the outer bits, not that you already have three bits but the Vitesse uses yet more that I don't know about...!

martyn wright Posted August 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Hi Colin! Yes mislaid the ones shown above but have the Long Straight Bar and 2 x Vents. So I need the ones above in the photo! Kind Regards Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martyn wright Posted October 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 Hi Colin! Due to a Virus and Work, I will not be going to Stoneleigh but will endeavour to find and send you that "Straight Finisher" for the Dash! Kind regards Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 Thanks Martyn; no hurry, but it'll be nice to have a complete set again. As with most parts you'll never see any whilst you're looking, but the minute you stop looking for them, a piece will appear magically in front of you. It's a Gremlin-type thing.
