I would like to find somewhere that can cast an arm for an external rear view mirror. Does anybody know of a person/company that can do one off small jobs like that?

Thanks

China

The aussie government over the years has disolved all of our manufacturing industries

Like the weather though.........everyone talks about it, but nobody does anything about it.👎
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

I figured there wouldn't be anywhere big that could do it. Just thought someone may know of a little place where the owner can cast unique parts.

Must be someone somewhere, surely!

There's a bloke near me who could do what you want - there is nothing that he can't make. Trouble is, he is even older than me, and he only does stuff for people who call in to his house [a long way from you], and are prepared to wait.

Your best bet would be to find someone, like Vic, who belongs to a Vintage or Veteran car club near you. The Vintage crowd are always getting 'special bits' made.

Cheers, Greg
