Subject: Re: Outer Door Handles & Bakerlite Horn Shaped Inner Door Locks
Hello Christian,
On the surface of it this would at first appear to be expensive! However the other side of the coin suggests otherwise. A short run of bespoke items that are impossible to get from another sauce or car! I have been to all sorts of auto jumbles & showed the originals to many with no success! Presumable these will be drilled out to receive the threaded rod end & polished? If too hard, splitting may be a problem that existed on the originals. I would suggest that the hole should only be a marginally smaller than the rod & malleable glue used! I'm still keen for 6 please! Just out of interest, a similar item made from alloy would be about £25 each.
Regards,
Guy
