AUSTIN AND BANTAM PARTS & SERVICES
BANTAM GRILLE BADGES

They're available at last!
I'm very happy with the die on these. Exact in every
detail. They have a slight convex dapped shape like the originals
and machine screw fittings with lock nuts that fit properly in
the grille holes. These are not nickel plated as one often discovers,
but real chrome plating. In addition to fitting on your badgeless
Bantams, these would make great desk accessory decorations, trophy,
plaques or other display enhancers. Many of you have written wanting
a gift for someone you know restoring a car. Here it is.
35$ plus $1.75 S & H

LYNN JAMES STEERING WHEELS!

Available once again, and for a limited last
time according to Lynn who is really getting tired of casting
and finishing these things. Restorers, don't miss out on one of
these legendary steering wheels. He ran a batch a few years back
which sold out and people are kicking themselves that they didn't
get one. Lynn emails that he is gearing up for what will probably
be the last run. According to my sources, these units are reportedly
better than the originals. They are cast in a polyurethane resin
in black and come complete with the horn ring button assembly.
They will not crack or break under normal usage in fact they are
really durable. He has some ready now (1-21-99 )as I understand
it.
They are$250.00 shipping included. If you like
you can call Lynn at (209) 835-6662 or e-mail
him. Lynn, is a great guy and does a lot of work for the Pacific
A-B Club. He comes to Austins and Bantams from the DRAGSTER crowd
believe it or not. I know that you think 250$ is a lot for a steering
wheel. Well, that's how much they cost...and they are wonderful.
Look at your old one when you have spent 5 years in restoring
your car. are you going to put that old dog on? Do it right!
