No idea on the triumph engine conversion. But as someone coming to the end of my 403 restoration, I can tell you that there is no one place for Bristol parts! Best bet by far is to join BODA! You will find lots of information on the members only part of the website, plus BODA also have some parts available that you will struggle to find elsewhere. And if they don't have what you want, someone will know where else you might get it.

Hi
My intentions is to join the the clubs, If everything goes well with the inspection of the body and chassis. I know the interior is in bad shape, dashboard looks complete. Would you or anyone else have any advice as to what to check whilst viewing the car. I do believe the engine and gearbox have been sold to somebody else and had been remove years ago from the car.

Hi
Its pretty far gone, all tyres cracked and been standing 30+ years years.It could be a nightmare to get out the garden. Im sure every Bristol is worth something even for parts. I do know the seller needs to sell, so the house can be sold. I would need to take four wheels/tyres, remove brakes, and even then it could fall apart when loading on the recovery truck. Unless he's prepared to give me it......i dont think I will consider it.
