I have everything put to one side in case someone in years to come would like it totally original. Many parts are available from Bristol Parts owned by the club and many other from Pegasus run by "the other club".
I am available for help if needed having owned the beast for 22 years and done 60,000 miles in it.

Hi Nick,
I'm interested in the electric power steering you fitted to your 407. Did you use a kit or modify an existing steering system from another car. The details would be of great interest to me.
Thanks,
Tom
