How much are you willing to pay?
You can still get them new, Kilkenny Castings in SA make them. They may even be available through Rare Spares.

I picked up an old Thomas rocker cover on eBay a while ago for about $100, I got lucky and I would've gone to $200 'coz that was the style I was after.
Holparts/Rare Spares in Wingfield SA had a finned alloy cover for $100, but it was the black style and it would've cost another $100 to polish.
Scout around a few wreckers, maybe call one of those Wrecker Hotlines and get them to put a call out for one. You never know what some of these guys have squirreled away.

BTW Col,
I think the Thomas brand is the precursor to Speco-Thomas. I may be wrong though.

Crap! where was this lot 8 months ago!
I'd be sniping this one if I hadn't collected everything individually already. Then again, the 186 in the FC could do with a tidy up  Grin

Thanks Smithy, but I have built up the collection I need, only took a couple years Smiley The FC will wait, I don't want two projects on the go.

You wont have any trouble getting rid of the other bits, or store them for later.

gday trev, geez i do love watching Ebay sometimes, and the amount of money people will pay for second hand items, sometimes far more than it would cost to buy the item new! Huh Huh

personally i pulled out of looking at it well before the $200 mark.
at the moment there are dozens of other things on my car that i could spend $200 on.
anyone got any 15' moon discs? Grin
