1935 twelve four Ascot - Steve Clare - 26-02-2020
Evening,
A friend of mine is restoring a 1935 twelve four Ascot.
He has a problem in that the casing immediately behind the starting dog is badly cracked.
Is there a specialist who might have spares for these cars?
Thanks

Hi Steve, Do you mean the timing cover, if so might be repairable.Any chance of a photo?

The Austin Ten Drivers Club (alias ATDC) has a comprehensive parts department, and they do sell to non-members. I see a couple of pre-loved timing covers listed at the moment which may be what your friend is after?
