All:
Sorry for this fairly tangential question, but I am out of leads, and I know this is a diverse group with a specialty in vehicles obscure but interesting. I have a lead on a VDP Princess "R" here in the states, currently not running but turns over by hand, but I am holding back until I can establish a source for spares. I do not have a machine shop, so I can't just whip up a part that I can't buy. I have tried the VDP owner's club forum, but it somehow doesn't respond (I have tried three browsers and several log in accounts) and there is no response from the web master when I email. Oh,and the RR shop in the nearest big city (Indianapolis) says he can not get spares. So..... does anybody on this forum know of a place to get spares for these obscure variants of the B-60 engine? I am OK with a source in the UK if it is large enough to be in business for a while....
Oh - and I am reasonably confident that the rest of the vehicle uses relatively common Austin parts, probably big Healy commonality, so I am not that worried about those parts. Engine only....
Thanks for any help!
