Hi Forumites.
My old car 'Bessie' is in desperate need of a new distributor cap. The man in the garage has enquired and it's going to cost me £140 for a new one even without him laying a finger on her.
Bessie is dearly loved and i really don't want to have to let her go but if i can't get a second hand distributor cap i'll have no choice.
She is a G reg Fiat Panda (don't laugh, she's lovely) 1 litre model so because of her age and changes in fiat spec etc etc i'm putting out a country wide carb hunt.
Are there any Fellow runners (renowned for liking carbs) who own a scrap yard or know of a wonderous scrap yard which may have my part please put on your thinking caps and contact me at stanley369@btopenworld.com if you can help.
Here's hoping Bessie can be saved from the crap heap for another year.

I obviously meant 'cap hunt' and maybe crap heap was a freudian slip )
Try googling breakers yard or summat and you'll find something similar.
I've done just that and put in requests to about half a dozen sites so hopefully i'll hear something tomorrow.
Fingers crossed eh!!
I knew the forunites would be able to help )
Just hope the net can come up with something
