Title: Availability of Parts
Post by: mick131 on June 20, 2007, 04:56:22 PM
Hi all,

Having not been able to use my 131 for a number of years, I have no idea if there are any standard parts that are difficult to get a hold of. What kind of experiences have you guy's had in getting bits ?.

I'm thinking of dizzy caps, points, exhausts, bearings etc etc.

Standard service parts are readily available and sometimes cheaply available on eBay as 'new old stock'. Body panels, especially those unique to the 2-door cars are difficult to find and even more difficult are parts unique to the Sport/Racing. Interior trim parts are almost impossible to find new. Body panels and common interior parts (switches, window winder handles etc) are available new from Turkey where the Tofas 131s were manufactured until a few years ago.

Cheers Theo,

I was praying that was the case.
