Thinking About Making Some More Parts For The Old Girls

[Miles 331 1 Cars]

As topic again,

It's that time where I'm thinking about expanding the old product range and I have a few idea's personally but I'd thought I'd ask the question in case I was missing something obvious, As said all idea's welcome from a bog std 1.6 to well anything

[SurGie 54]

The gti 6 silicone oil breather pipes.

 

Longer welded gear sticks.

The gti 6 silicone oil breather pipes.

 

Longer welded gear sticks.

 

Yes! Both of these.

[Matt Holley 11]

Not something that everyone will want but I will ask the question, I have bought a gearbox that has been modified to be used with rose joints on the gear change rods, can you supply rose joints that screw on to your rods or balls that I can screw onto the gearbox so I can still use your rods?

 

Thanks

Yep!

 

Also a top rad hose that fits a 6 conversion and using a enclosed filter. Bbm one doesn't do the job.

Driving Light Surrounds, made out of something that wont corrode and powder coated?

[pp205 17]

Great suggestion about the light surrounds!

 

Also:

 

A decently priced 1.9 mi spark plug cover - current ones on the market seem to be heavily overpriced for what is essentially a thin strip of metal or carbon fibre

 

Headlight earth blocks, managed to clean my originals up but couldn't find if Peugeot still make them

 

Header tank cap - replacement from Peugoet wouldn't seal properly and new style looks sh*t

[Miles 331 1 Cars]

Oil Breather Pipes I will be looking into as they will go with the Mi one's which are back in stock over the next couple of weeks,

 

Matt, I have the balls that bolt onto the arm's, Rose Joints fit directly to the rods as well, I can supply them from £8.00 each depending on quality.

 

Light surrounds would be a no go as the tooling cost would be allot, as they need to be pressed out

 

The Rad cap's I would have thought could be got from any motorfactor as it's a age old design, I know Pug one's have changed to the plastic things which don;t really fit.

Precut and drilled sunroof plates? (for lazy people)

[Baz 421]

Headlight earth blocks are the same as the ones inside the car on the steering column that as a result are usually in good order and should be pretty easy to obtain, i have a fair few spare.

 

Precut and drilled sunroof plates? (for lazy people)

 

 

Funnily enough i have that in the pipeline as i have a few left over from the old lot.

 

A mate is working towards making the rectangle-head bumper bolts.

 

I'd like some Mi Spark plug bore seals, been on that one for a while, something as simple as rubber hose cut to size would work surely.

yeah i would defintely buy this!

[johnnyboy666 195 1 Cars]

Bit of a long shot, but theres a gap in the market for tubular manifold adapted for 16v TU engine conversions. Not sure if that'd be finacially viable to do an 'off the shelf' version (IE buying in manifolds and adapting them then selling them on) or just adapting ones that the customer has already purchased (but then that would be a ballache with different style/brand manifold)

just a thought

this! using SS bolts that aren't twice as long as they need to be

[Paul_13 212 1 Cars]

GrpN rear beam sandwhich mounts. Bbm stopped making them

[SurGie 54]

The rear bumper side plate fixings, NFP at Pug and iirc Anthony has one spare for you to copy off.

 

The arch trim fixing metal clips.

 

Front original looking mudflaps and badges ???

 

Agreed on the front driving lights surrounds.

[cRaig 273 1 Cars]

Couldnt driving light surrounds be re-made in a tough plastic? Would potentially be cheaper to make, and much longer lasting.

 

Also agreed on generally all bumper fixings which are now getting very expensive for what they are!

[harryskid 193]

Power steering , thats affordable and reliable, could be electric. Light weight to suit a compt car and would work with a quick rack. I could do with one soon, like yesterday!

Tubular bottom arms that use replacable (off the shelf) ends.

 

Nothing with rosejoints in as they dont last.

Phillip has already done those.

Phillip? Link?

[Miles 331 1 Cars]

The Side trim metal clips I have in stock and are still available from Pug in the bag load,

Have you got the part number for the rear bumper bit's as these could be Nylon like all the 306 ones are.

 

I'll look into the rubber's, Would have to be made down under/New Zealand thou to come in at the right price, but easy to do

[Chris_Mi 6]

Mi16 silicon hose that goes to the heater matrix with a bleed valve in it?

[welshpug 1,666]

Phillip? Link?

306 items shown there, he needs someone to pop up with a 205 subframe with arb and wishbone, those inner joints will last if you spec decent ones and the outer is a standard 306 part.

Stew does those
