WTB - Horn grilles and clear or amber light assys.

Anybody got a set? Used, beaten and discard-pile sets are A-OK.
I'm not in a position to be choosy. If I can't lay onto some quick, I'm going to have to go LED. I already have the LED ones, but they look absolutely horrible.
I'll pay a good price for what'cha got. You tell me, I pay you.

Cory, I just replaced my oxidized horn grilles with new ones. The old pair is yours if you want 'em - no charge. Just email your address to me and I'll send 'em right out. polynesianpop AT yahoo.com

You have mail! Thanks!

Austin Healy 3000 round turn signal lamps work great - they have either clear or amber glass lenses with a chrome retaining ring and rubber mounting with socket (available for 1 or 2 filament bulbs so could wire for running and turn signals). The clear look great with amber bulbs. New from Moss Motors they are ~$25 each --- used $10. These were also used on AH sprite, Triumph TR2/3 and Spitfire plus a few others. CMCs actually used truck clearance lights that are still available. I probably have an extra one (I have lots of the chrome trim rings but not glass lenses) if you want to try it out for size/look --- I'm local to ya!

"I have lots of the chrome trim rings but not glass lenses"

If you wanna sell a couple of chromed rings, I need a pair.

Lemme know, OK?

Thanks!

That was a hi-jack, wasn't it ? I didn't even realize it when I posted, I had to go back into "edit" to add this. Weird . . . seems to hi-jack is just my nature . . .

I miss the edit feature (after first hour it goes away)! To clarify - What I have are pieces for the AH 3000 lights --- some of chrome is not best after what 40 years! I'll see what I have. Cory - you are welcome to them if it will help with your build and the looming deadline completion!

Cory, I forgot to mention -- I have the grills but don't have the lights...

Adrian, thanks a million for the grilles.
I'm going to take the plunge and go British for the trim rings and lenses. I'm going to look into the AH parts Wolfgang suggested -- and which TC has touted for so long as the "other" way to go for stuff you can't find -- and get some glass ones with incandescent bulbs.

It is official now, too. There is NO WAY I'm driving to Pennsylvania in the Hoopty. It will be trailered, and we will arrive Saturday in the early afternoon with the old girl on a trailer.
She will be missing crucial pieces, but there comes a time when you have to acknowledge defeat. Can't be done, so I'll slow down a bit and keep my sanity.

I did find a cool part, though, but I'm going to make my own instead of buying this one. This guy is a stick-on Outlaw badge:

Anytime Cory. They went out Priority Mail on Friday so you should have them any day now. I really wish I could make Carlisle to meet some of the folks here and see the Hoopty in person -- maybe next year...

Thanks, Adrian. The Hoopty won't be going away for YEARS when it's done. Maybe we could have an East Meets West in Iowa or something down the line?
