[hot rods and custom stuff]

Hey guys,

The chassis number is 3109. As Jeremy mentioned, we're looking for a number of parts for the car. We're looking for the following parts (with more to come I'm sure):

Windshield and posts (and any other associated parts)
Complete grille
Exterior lights
Any exterior trim/moldings
Mirrors
Emblems
Gauges
Dash switches, knobs, etc.

We're new to Arnolt Bristols, so any helpful information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
DJ

We're still looking for leads and help on tracking down parts for this build. Obviously resources for Arnolt's are limited so any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,
DJ

DJ,
About 15 years ago I bought a large parcel of Arnolt parts from USA , mostly new old stock mechanical with a few body panels & hardware .
These were reputed to be the last of the Arnolt parts from the Arnolt Corporation.
Most of what you require has been sold .

I have new dash knobs and possibly some switches and a good range of new & used mechanical pieces. I think there is one rear fender & two scuttle/dash panels

Gauges or basically the same as Bristol 405 and should be available ex UK from one of the Bristol Breakers.
The triple gauge can be made up using a Landrover triple gauge

External lights & period mirrors are readily available from Holdens ex UK

Windscreen post , you were about a month to late . I just sold the last I had .
These can also be fabricated from a sample
I suggest you locate another Arnolt nearby and inspect and measure what you need .

Grille can be fabricated from a sample/pattern

Are you doing the mechanical restoration as well??
