I've got a 1995 Morgan +8 in the shop that needs rear wheel cylinders and a drum. This stuff has got to interchange to 'something'. The wheel cylinders boots are labelled Lockheed.

Any ideas?

I'll bet you Morgan would tell you. Probably interchanges to something like a Triumph.

You might try asking at Auto Europe in Birmingham MI, pretty sure they're a dealer and definitely equipped for full service repair.

Make sure your shop is free of termites . Sorry, I'm not helpful at all.

Do spaceships have structural wood?

They're standard mass produced parts from the F-35.......they will only cost you the princely sum of $29 million a piece.

Jeff, you're in luck! The shoes are the same ones used on 1989 Leyland DAF vans and 1989 Ford Transit vans.
Call Auto Europe.

That has never been officially clarified, however married couples have been aboard the Shuttle together in the past..

I already checked, just some pinion bearings and wiper arms.

Since they only make a handful a year, I doubt they used anything that would be exclusive to them.

Looks like you might be able convert to 240Z drums if the owner is not too concerned with authenticity. However, it appears new aluminum drums are NLA, so you might have to convert to new steel or used aluminum.

Found stuff at Morgan-spares.com. From talking to them (very nice folks) even the Morgan dealers in the US buy from them!

I need a better cameraphone to share this stuff with you guys. It's a super detailed car you could eat off of. Manifolds and exhaust are jet-hot coates and look very nice with the rest of the bright work.

I just looked in both engine offerings on rock auto... the 3.9 listing shows brake parts... at least there are numbers you can check, and possibly cross reference
