Will do, the H120 it is a very small section within the Sunbeam Owners but I have their spares secretary's contact details and will give them a ring.

So who is the Steve?

Good work Richard, I'm sure a lot of us would be interested in nice shiny fuel caps at a fair price.

Well Glen, me & bobhon had a good lung full of the smokey bandits tyre smoke after some emergency braking was initiated in front of us

All later 'arrow' based fastbacks will have this fuel cap. That's Alpines, Rapiers, including the H120 version.

Update;
At the NEC I spoke to Matthew Davies, Director of CEANDESS (http://www.ceandess.uk/) of Wolverhampton who already manufacture a range of fuel caps for classics. We brought in Middlebridge Scimitar to the discussion. The combined demand from the two might make manufacture viable. They would be looking at 3D profiling and will evaluate in either stainless or aluminium. They will also talk to TVR Parts Ltd to see if they would be prepared to obtain some for stock to increase the order quantity. Advantage for us of course is that they are already in this business, know the techniques and want to expand their range in this niche market. I have agreed to contact him again to follow up.

I spoke to him too, mentioned both the S and Rapier - and have their business card. He said he would like some photos
