Not in a club as yet, but they look great in the pics. Any idea on cost and availability as yet.

The FE bonnet emblems are due about Christmas time - price around $70 for club members. The handles will be $120 a pair for club members.

Had a chance to look at the new handle last night at the NSW Club meeting, they are a great looking unit I would think that for the price why would anyone want to get their old ones rechromed!!!! Fantastic job to all concerned.

I have spoken to Rare Spares and the floods in Thailand have caused a major delay in everything coming out of the region. Infrastructure has been severely damaged and 3 to 4 month delays seem to be the norm for small manufacturing concerns. It seems that the door handles will be in the next container load at the end of February and bonnet emblems maybe after that.

Thanks for the update Ken. Will certainly look at door handles as the old ones look like a bad case of acne. Cheers Moe`t

Theyare supposed to be inthe Feb container - it takes a while to ship and clear customs. The suppliers are never really accurate about what is and isnt in the container. Rare Spares sometimes only find out what is in the container when they open it.

Ken rolled up to our tent at the Nationals and showed us the handles.
Awesome reproductions looked and felt great
Better than trying to find a pair and getting them chromed
My 2 cents
