Unusual stainless steel radiator shell with stainless slats. Never installed but it is definitely a replica as inside the shell is the manufacturer, Ro-Mar Products out of Florida.

Estate cleanout run by a nephew who said the unfinished MG was sold last year. Somehow this radiator shell and a few other pieces were overlooked and he just found them above the garage only hours earlier. 

The shell is highly polished to a brilliant, chrome-like finish.  Notice, holes have not been drilled for the trailing edge of the shell.  Grill slats bolt into place with room for adjustment.  Size 10-32 bolts have been welded in place to which the insert is held.  There is one bolt missing on the lower right.  I was informed it can be easily welded and the stainless easily polished again.  I would think epoxy or JB Weld would hold it.  The slats on the insert have been stamped into a "vee" shape and then spot welded to a frame which then bolts in.  I don't know if that is how they were originally.  Refer to the photos please. 

The only real imperfection I can see is the on very lower right side just below the opening a very slight indent can be seen which should be easily pressed out.   As you can see from the back side photos, it has been welded and carefully formed. 

At the widest part on the back side it measures 17.75" though there is room for expanding or narrowing it a bit as the metal has flex at that point. I've taken as many pictures as eBay allows to be posted though some may be a bit difficult as the trees overhead cause a reflection. 

Please examine all of them and it is up to you to ask questions or raise any concerns you might have.  My goal is to make customers happy and not create ill-will as my feedback shows.  You may contact me with specific questions at 253 225 6433 any time after 6:00 am on the west coast.  If you need more pictures I can send them.  It is up to you to be sure this is what you want as there are no returns. It has been described to the best of my ability and the photos do the rest.  Bear in mind this is a reproduction so some adjustments may be necessary though maybe not as I have no idea. You must take that into consideration as part of your restoration.

It will be carefully packaged and shipped via the lowest cost shipper which may be FedEx, UPS or USPS.  It is my choice as to which ever is least expensive to you.  A modest $3.00 handling fee is included for the extra time and materials in order to prepare it for safe shipping.  Please be aware that all shipper have raised the prices again in May.

NOTE:  International buyers: A 5% handling fee will be added to the final selling price to cover additional materials for packing and trips to the shipper.

New 2015 Mazda2 arrives

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

This is the new 2015 Mazda2 (Demio) The new Mazda2 was all but revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March in the guise of the Mazda Hazumi Concept, but now the real new Mazda2 has arrived, or at least it has in Japan. But Mazda are captioning the photos – which are clearly of the Demio – as the Mazda2, so we can be pretty sure not much is going to change when the Demio gets the Mazda2 badge in the UK and Europe. That means the same Kodo design language Mazda has introduced across its range recently with a shield grill flowing in to the headlights, big wheel arches and horizontal lights at the back – all very much like the Hazumi.

Land Rover blocking Range Rover Evoque sales to ‘Dishonest’ buyers

Thu, 31 May 2012

Land Rover are blocking sales of the Range Rover Evoque in an effort to stem the flow of cars out of the UK from ‘dishonest’ buyers Over the last few days we’ve had a number of emails from disgruntled readers who’ve been unable to collect their new Range Rover Evoque from their dealer, despite their Evoque being with the dealer and being paid for in full. It transpires that Land Rover are trying to control the supply of the Evoque to businesses and individuals who may sell it on or export it, but their weapon of choice seems to be a bit blunt. So far, after just a few phone calls, we’re aware of over 50 Evoques where Land Rover has either cancelled the order or refused to release the car.
