EMERGENCY!!

We were only days away from completing the full restoration of our Silver Cloud 1 when distaster struck. Our precious Chromium plater destroyed 3 of our door waist strips. Can anyone please help us in locating new or good second hand repacments. We need both front door waist strips, the rear drivers door strip and all clips (bearing in mind this is a right hand drive vehicle).

We assume that these would be the same as the Bentley series 1 and maybe the 2 and 3.

We would appreciate any and all advice and help, as being owners yourselves, you can imagine the stress we are going through.
Regards

The following is an address where you could almost certainly buy new or equivalent items. They have been very good for me, and I can, with one proviso, recommend them.

Their e-mail is

experts@healeybros.co.uk

The individual I deal with is Eric Healey.

The proviso: better be sitting down when you get the quote ...

PS: They have a Web page. Can't remember it offhand, but I suggest you do a search for Healey Bros.

Good luck

I know it's a bit far afield, but there's a chap who has operations in California and Oregon - Tony Handler - who has just about anything you might want, 1947 - now. Sorry, but he doesn't show an email address, however, his fax is 310-479-1197. I assume there are smarter people than I who will know what extra numbers to add for transmission from down under!

P.S.

I would be willing to bet the farm that Handler has the moulding strips you're talking about.

Thankyou to everyone concerned who have helped out in giving me advise on replacing our waist strips. Thanks to the internet we did manage to get them from Leslie Abbott - Rolls Royce and Bentley Spares in England - and had to rechrome them here in Australia. As a few of you have mentioned, since the waist strips, we have found Eric Healey in UK very helpful and reasonably priced in supplying us with a few parts.
Unfortuneatly, as everyone knows, the dollar is so low we paid a fortune for the parts but when we so proudly see our finished Cloud, the money is soon forgotten.
Kindest Regards to All
Debbie
