    Pat probably has the fixtures to make what you need.

    Barry and Ian would likely need a sample.

    Default Ian is no longer with us...

    I am sorry to say that Ian Gordon is no longer living. He died approximately two weeks ago after a very long and tough battle with cancer. His shop continues to operate at Sear Pt. (Infineon).

    Jeff (ace rimmer),

    A thought: Send your opposite (good) wishbone to someone like Pat Prince or Ted (10Rmotor) and have them create a mirror copy.

    That would be me - shameless plug

    I could build a jig to make the A-arm so that subsequent a-arms wouldn't need a sample. Wouldn't take long. I work out of my garage, so I don't charge as much as a race shop that has overhead.

    I also build stainless headers for MC powered cars.
