Sipson Way Collectors Car Spares

[simmo]

Been talked about on here a couple of times and worth a visit if you like your replacement parts a bit rusty and in delapidated boxes from a shop that would need a make over to be a charity shop or just want to kill a bit of time while visiting Heathrow to meet a delayed flight.

 

Don't believe the cliche that the shop's a mess but the old boy can go straight ro anything you ask for, not here he'll get all sorts of boxes out before he finds what you want, we were in there over an hour last time getting some Landy bits

Ah Howard. A class act!

 

Is it really wrong that I want that Jago kit car? Mind you, it's been there for a long time...

Not at all...................

 

but I am biased being Chairman & Editor of the Jago Owners Club ..................

There's a owners club?!

I'd love to visit this establishment, they've come up trumps with stuff for me over the last couple of years by mail order and are so helpful, would be great just wandering around the place looking at all the shelves groaning under the weight of old car parts.....

There's a owners club?!

 

Has existed for 26 years now though membership has dropped from the 500+ in the 80's to around 140 these days, we get our VIP visit from Geoff Jago once a year at Stoneleigh.

 

Apologies to admin for going way of topic with my favourite subject................

Howard bought my Super Minx, and I bought his Austin 3 litre........... About 25 years ago.......!

[nigel bickle]

I bought a Standard Companion off him -also about 25 years back!

Does he still have the "Do not Turn this handle" magneto on the counter, or have the H&S Nazis done away with it?
