Well I made a couple of calls yesterday in respect to reactivating Zertec.
Excellent stuff Clive, I thin we maybe met once in an age gone by. If you need any help from the Uk let me know. Also please let me know when release anything!

From what I remember I always liked your kit, just was not in a position to buy back then being 22 and in my first job!

Great to see you back on here Clive, love the Zertec accessories, great design unfortunately you had shut up shop by the time I got my Tiv.

Interested in one of your handbrakes if you are having more made. Also very interested in your steering cowl with the extra gauges as per my other post.

David is a top bloke, very kindly sourced me a set of your dash buttons which I have been after for years.

We will be doing handbrakes (once the foundry finds the patterns) and also looking into the steering cowl. I also designed a steering wheel that was intended to be produced in forged carbon fibre but that process stalled so may make it in regular autoclaved CF instead. This was the first 3D-printed mockup:

Early July before I'm back. That should give time for completion of modifications to Griffith, Cerbera and DB9.

Hi Matthew, as Clive mentioned I'm the contact for these so you might as well just email me direct or direct your questions at me. biggrin

Stalks have been ordered but at the moment the foundary can't find the moulds for the handbrakes, no big deal as it can be reproduced but that has delayed production of those.

The pods are in hand and will also take a little time to sort as his prototype was handmade and there is no mould. Production of the mould has been set in motion and I'll update when we have news to share.

Many thanks for the update David. I'll email you direct in future, looks like you are Clive's PA now? wink

Speaking of email I did pop you a mail as you requested regarding a Sprint article, I know you are normally quite responsive but I didn't hear back from you on this occasion. The mail was sent to your griffeditor mail on the 3rd March, do you know if you got it OK?
