412 Spares sources

[JLucy]

I'm trying to get my Beaufighter back on the road, after a four-year hiatus, and need various new parts - mainly the common service items and, unfortunately, all the brake calipers. Based in the UK.

I have been told that the front brake calipers are the same as a contemporaneous Jag XJ6 but I wondered if anyone has a list of the components the 412 / Beaufighter has in common with other cars? I seem to remember the Beaufighter's small rectangular twin headlights are from a Lancia? I will try to forget that the interior door handles are from a Morris Marina, possibly the worst car that ever existed.

American car specialists seem a likely source for engine/gearbox requirements, and I have been in touch with American Car Care Services (ACCS) in London, who have worked on the car before.

Any suggestions or information will be much appreciated. I am of course aware of the good work BCL and Brian May do with regard to spares.
