Try giving country vehicles a call, they may still have a few parts. If not the administrator to this site may have some spares available?
Regarding your radiator – don’t throw yours away! Get it recored at a specialist – this will probably be around 150. When you come to replace the clutch it is much easier to drop the gearbox out than remove the engine.
Join the club – its only 8 quid! You’ll get access to lots of technical info in the old (scans on this site) club magazines!

Hi, I’ve recently undertaken my first restoration project. I’ve purchased an umm alter 2 normally aspirated commercial.I have a mechanic lined up to do most of the work for me but I’m going to carry out whatever I can myself. I’m only getting it washed down an lifted tomorrow to have a good look at it but I know from the previous owner I need a new clutch, head gasket, rear springs, radiator perhaps, head lining, floor lining. Do you know where I might get these parts?
I’m from Wicklow, Ireland. I’d like to restore this to a high standard and have been looking at Portuguese forums but with the translation a lot is lost. Any info or advice would be very much appreciated.
Kind regards,
George
