A full restoration is in progress and we are currently at the body work stage trying to find various parts required to keep it original as possible.
Currently on the look out for Aluminium bonnet?
Zender wheel arches which has been up for sale on this forum if they are still available could get in touch, any help would be much appreciated.
We also need to look into engine rebuild options in the near future.
If you have any contacts that may help please get in touch.

Thanks
 
RHD or LHD?
For both I have wood with new veneer available

Or maybe a set of 5-hole Alpina rims?

Thread 'FS: 2 sets ALPINA 5 hole rims 4/73 3/74 1110345'

The rims were in very good condition when I received them. Anyhow I decided to get them revised by a renowned workshop.
The coating has been removed chemically, followed by balancing to true running as well as smoothing of the rim edges.

Detailed pics are available for those interested, please contact me.
One set costs 4400€. Plus shipping from Germany.
I prefer selling and shipping them without getting coated first.

Post in thread 'FS: LHD/RHD complete interior wood set refurbished or new, single items also available'

....different skills, different approaches..
We neither use steam nor vacuum.
At the area with the holes we just put a board on top of the veneer and use the press.
But: in between we put a strong cloth, which we cut in stripes towards the edges. We abandonedly use standard white waterproof glue. At the edges we apply an even bigger layer of glue and allow time to soak the veneer. Then, criss-crossing the stripes, we force them over the edge, pressing the veneer against the wood. We leave it tightly fixed for a couple of days allowing the glue to dry...

If your wood is still good enough to get refurbished you may bring it in. Otherwise we would supply either newly made or refurbished parts from another source.
In the following please find the cost for refurbished parts brought in and new parts in Euro:
Strip on the door 180/300
Strip rear side 100/150
Instrument surround 260/530
Large dashboard piece 310/770
Small dashboard piece 180/260
Loudspeaker covers (new only) 185
3 strips on dashboard veneer 100
Centre console board 140/250

You may order single parts but note that the colour may differ from your original parts

Thomas - are you able to supply the veneered grab rail for rhd models ? - if so a price would be good to know. Thanks
 
Hi Christopher,
removing the old veneer from the grab rail is really challenging, specifically on the inner curve. Applying new veneer around the curved shape: we gave in!
This is a rail with the old veneer being removed, planned, stained and coated.

Of course my carpenter could carve a new one from walnut wood.
Wouldn't come cheap!
