Thanks mate!

Yes, I have been doing that.

So far I have found:

Jaaaag rear axle, with inboard disc brakes (no brake dust on rear wheels!)
Cortina Mk4 front suspension
Escort Mk2 or Capri outer door handles
Austin Metro interior door handles
Granada steering column switches
Triumph TR7 dasboard switches
Ford (most from mid 1980's) indicator repeaters

I'm sure I'll find others as I go.

I can't work out what the rear lights are from, but they are fitted upside down in the TVR.



And Steve, my whole life has been a bit of a crisis, so mid-life or not, doesn't make much difference! :D

Surely you enjoyed the TVR, the Vento and the Vectra as well winkeye

Sorry I had to dash of early as I had a prior engagement thanks to the missus :roll: Hopefully as we said when the clocks go forward and the weather warms up the hibernating masses will re-appear.
