Fitted the carcass of the garage door today. I just have to find something to clad the door in that I like, and we will be set.

Yeah sure do! I need some of those rubber bushes/seals, sorta like a short slash cut tube.that go on the wiper spindles on the outside scuttle of the Oval. there are a couple that go on the inside as well I think they come as a set (4 pices) and a couple of Oval outside door handle springs, the ones that make them return when you pull them. they are quite small and look sort of like a clothes peg spring. You should get some of these for your Oval too! I also need some spring wire clips that hold the inside assembly of the 6volt headlight to the chrome bezel, they are long ones about 2- 3 inch's 10 of em should do. I can post some money to you if you like.
thanks...Rob....

Got the springs and the rubber grommet thingys for the wipers. There were no clips for the headlights, he thought he had some but couldn't find any.
Basically asked for two of each thing, so I have a set of grommets as well as two door springs as well.
Let me know if there is any way to get them to you prior to Valla, (ie: where do you want them mailed to) if not then I'll hand them over then
Cheers
