off challenge topic but i thought i'd ask me mates

[tbdgriff500]

in desperate need of a centre cap for the early griff oz lattice style rims,
looking to get a full set professionaly refurbed at the end of the month to put on my new griff but am missing one cap, i am sure someone must have or know a dealer or garage with one sitting around so am just trying to reach as many tvr people as possible to find me one, cash or beer or both waiting

Sorry Tim, can't help. Can't you just go to a local TVRCC meeting and nick one? Can I claim the beer for the suggestion

you could try giving neal a call in parts dept here http://www.tvrcarparts.com

just to say they do sponsor me so i'm biased

not up on site http://www.tvrcarparts.com/pages/parts.asp?vehicle... but worth a call as he has shipping containers full of stuff

Think this chap has a set! Almost bought the job lot off him but chickened out at the last moment

hi Ian
i had given this some thought but all you end up with is a load of junk you can't sell, bought a garage load once and after 6 months sold it as a job lot again, did earn some dosh though, but he won't split it, and i have nowhere to store that amount of stuff!
cheers
tim.

I guess its the same as fragging out cars, you should never go into it thinking you'll get your money back in the short term, maybe a few big ticket items go quickly but not enough to make it worth while.

A bit of a long shot but I don't suppose they're the same/similar to BMW / VW BBS centre caps? I haven't got any spare but could send you one to try if you promise to return it
