Vintage and Classic Reproductions

As of this week, they still have twenty complete U2 carbs and ten for parts. Once they're gone that's it! See address in the tech section under reproduction parts. They are in Australia.

I have had conversations with Mike Butters, he was looking into taking on the production of these parts.

Bob- Do the Butters still reproduce ALL of the late Harvey Frid's parts? I think he did just about everything for several of our cars. He even reproduced the radiator shell for his 4-07! It was cast out of the alloy Koroloy that he did all his castings from. Looked great, just weighed 400 lbs.!

Ross- Yes, Mike Butters does reproduce the Harvey Frid parts (I think his dad Neil has retired). Mike has cast the swallow, a locking door handle and a window frame for a B-22 for me. The business that he has is a machine shop.
