Propshaft?
What is the general consensus on sources for propshafts?
Engine is x/flow with 4 speed, rear axle is cortina. I have a 2 piece prop that could be modified, but what would that cost v's a new one?
Car is being built in Bedford but I'm in Gloucestershire.
Thoughts please.

Bailey Morris at Eaton Socon/St Neots. I've not used them yet but they have a Very Good reputation from the Hot Rod/Stock car racers (my boss
was the starter at Brafield stock car race circuit.)
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

There are propshaft places all over - there's one within 200yds of my work, I know one in Macclesfield & another in Northwich - in fact
it's a mystery how so many proshaft places survive!! Who's using all these propshafts??
Anyway these places (in my experience) are all helpful, friendly, knowledgable & usually understand the notion of a "discount for
cash"
Just find your nearest one.....
