RILEY 1.5 AND WOLSELEY 6/80 NORFOLK all useful bits now gone

Post by sparesman »

Saw a Riley 1.5 and a Wolseley 6/80 in a local yard being cleared near Norwich last week. Anyone want parts off either before they get crushed?

Are the front hub assemblies including the drums available off the 1.5?

AntB and Samuria
Only just seen your postings as nothing came through into my email box when you sent them.
Plan to go to the yard next Saturday so will check out if front drums are there on the Riley - I think they were.
The yard is just off the A140 north west of Norwich but has been shut to public since 2002 and is in final stages of being cleared.
If you want to meet me there please ring me on my number on the Club Spares page in Minor Matters

Checked the car today and the front wheels are still on so assume everything else is still there. Please phone me on 01603 870757 if you want them.

was at the yard yesterday, remains of the Riley and 6/80 still there. Both still have front swivels and hubs plus 6/80 still has back axle.
