alsfarms Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Has anyone seen a friend with any misc. Alvis parts? I still need a few to finish up an Alvis Special and also a 1947 TA-14 DHC. I know that they are not common in the US but you never know what we have that we can share with one another. Particularly, I could use a pair of Jaguar XK-120 size wheel spinners that say Alvis and not the typical Jaguar. Two more and I will have a matched set for my car.

alsfarms Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 Hello Art,Thanks for the reference. I am an Alvis club member and am familiar with Red Triangle. I sent an email to the British firm making new spinners. I hope they match the original design and style. Maybe I can get a full set to place on my Alvis TA-14.Thanks Again,Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 For any Alvis people with potential parts or knowledge of parts, I would like to locate several sundry misc. items for my TA-14 DHC. Small parts are needed up to and including a better chassis would be good. My chassis is restorable but it makes me tired just looking at what needs to be done! Is a loose chassis anywhere in the USA...now is you chance to speak up.Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 Still looking for a few Alvis TA-14 parts and also any Alvis TA-21. These Alvis cars are late 40's and early 50's models. The TA-14 is a 4 cylinder car and the TA-21 is a 6 cylinder model. If you know of anything, please drop a note. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restorer32 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 You seldom hear of Alvis. We did a '64 several years ago. Before then I knew virtually nothing about Alvis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 For those that may not know. Alvis is a low production car from England. They all are considered "Coach Built", meaning they have custom non factory bodies. The big series Alvis, was a direct competitor to Bentley, LaGonda and etc. They are not seen much in the US but have had a significant number imported over time. If you have seen any Alvis parts or a long ago hidden project, please drop a note. I am midstream with a TA-14 and also a TA-21. Parts help is appreciated. Both of my projects are late 40's early 50's. Thanks, Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
