Hi all
Just wondering if anyone would have access to a couple of parts that we are in urgent need of for our Sycamore
One is the LH Upper Door Hinge (pic shown is the opposite side) and the others are two of the Lower Supports for the front doors
If you are able to help please let me know
Regards

Oh dear.In that case I think you’ll have to manufacture replicas.There were relatively few Mk 3s built and the only survivors are all in museums. Spare parts are practically zero in the UK and as Australia was the only export sale( the Mk 50 ) I imagine you’ve exhausted that option. Maybe you can replicate by borrowing the components from the preserved Mk50 to copy?

Ours is a Mk3 – the one after it A91-2 was a Mk 4 for memory.

Remind me which Mark of Sycamore you have as the Mk3 and Mk 50 ere very different from the later examples. If it’s a Mk 4 or Mk 51 it is likely compatible with the Mk14 and Mk 52.
