Since the demise of TVR car parts where can I get a steering column to bulkhead bearing for an S1?

David Geralds have bought on TVR car parts stock so I'd try giving them a call.

Got my bearing (complete with housing) from TVR power (total cost £35.99). They advertise it as a specific V8S part but it's a universal fit for the S3/4 and the V8S. Should you want to replace the steering U/Js at the same time I would recommend Rally Design as a good source of the Sierra and Escort items used on the S series.

Postscript: -

I suspect that your S1 has the original Escort nylon bulkhead bush and, whilst I'm not aware whether these are still available, I know that some owners have replaced these with later ball-bearing items on the basis that they provide smoother operation and a longer service life.
