Wheel centre caps

[richa]

Any ideas where I can get new centre caps and bolts (or is it nuts?) for my 390. I've got the 15" lattice wheels.

Rich,
I believe the Granada and SD1 wheels of a similar type have the same centre caps. If you can get some - see the thread "400 Wheel Badges" to get contacts for the TVR logo.

Ford do wheel nuts with a free-spinning cone that are meant for alloys and fit these wheels properly, unlike the silly aftermarket ones on my car.
I also replaced the studs on one wheel after I sheared one off - again they are standard Granada items.
How goes your 390, Richard? Is it fit?

IIRC there are two types, the difference being the diameter in the road wheel where the centre cap fits. If you look at the back of one of your caps (assuming you have one that is!) you should see either M140 or M141. I was told by the factory a number of years ago the M141's were no longer availble, M140's I don't know as my spare set of wheels use the M141 centres

It's going very well. The few niggles I had after the restoration (inc. the high oil pressure discussed here) are now sorted, and it's driving really well.

Just trying to get a few cosmetic bits done now.
