Afternoon folks
been off the radar for a while but the trusty 411 is on the road in NZ. Im loving driving it and its all coming together nicely.
Im here in the uk for a holiday at the moment and im hoping to pick up a few parts fro the 411.
I was told a while ago about a couple who ran a type 4 parts shop(or something like this) somewhere in the uk. I have a feeling that they are in the south somewhere and i really wanted to get hold of them .
does anyone have any idea who this could be?
contact details would be amazing.
Parts im after....
all for a cyclops headlamp 411 1969.
period radio
glove box lid.
underdash heater pipes.
engine funnel grill. (sits on the top of the funnel and is right under your nose when you open the deck lid)
steering wheel
cheers loads in advance folks

Hi Dave, what do you of our English summer so far?
They are Jane and Bryan Terry at Volksfarmers and they are near to Ashford/Canterbury, they are advertised on here in the services section but to save you time hunting the contact number is below. I think they might indeed have most of the bits on your little shopping list as well
01303 840374
you might need to try a couple of times to get through to them but be persistant.
Enjoy your holiday

Hi Dave
Good news is Bryan says we have all that you are looking for but if you cant get us on the above number ring 01303840241 in the evenings. The trouble is it is summer time and if the sun is shining we are making hay. Best bet is to watch the weather and if it is raining in this area we will be in.
