After parting with my precat 4.3 griff last year and the garage clear out last weekend, you can see where this is going. I now find that I nearly have a complete car of spares just gathering dust. So my question is this. flea-bay or PH classifieds for selling these bits?

I tend to try here first, then flea bay. Most stuff sells on PH to be fair.

Hi, im currently rebuilding the front end of a pre-cat Griff and would be interested in knowing what parts you have to sell? Any bodywork parts? Having trouble finding a full front repair section at a reasonable cost, any body out there know where there is a front shell section?
Thanks, phil.

Hi, buying a new moulding may turn out to be the only way to get the job done, but was hoping to find a damaged shell somewhere, will try Bell Hill Garage (thanks for the lead Tank Boy). The later style with the wider opening probably makes more sense from the functional point of view, more air flow.

What i really want to do is convert to a removeable flip front so a complete front end shell would make more sense really to make a mould from..

They are off a 92 4.3 Griff. I had the faces that bolt to the engine milled up face to help with sealing exhaust gaskets a bit better.

I can dig out a picture if you would like.
