The T.O.C. spares committee was reconstituted from 2019 and the first meeting held on January 10.
The committee consists of Guy Gregory, Ian Potts, Martin Bryant, John Dodd and James Fack
Talbot Spares Policy
The Talbot Owners’ Club is deeply committed to supporting members with both new and second hand spares with a view to keeping as many cars on the road as possible.
This is achieved firstly by maintaining a stock of second hand spares mainly acquired through the generosity of, or purchase from club members. Details can be seen on the club website.
The spares committee liaises with the main Talbot specialists and other key stockists concerning new spares to ensure there is no overlap and to look to produce spares, mostly of a consumable nature which will benefit members and the specialists alike. A listing of available spares including modern equivalent parts from all sources can be found on the club web site. Club reserves have been ring fenced for the purpose of new spares manufacture.
The spares committee will meet on a regular basis to review both second hand and new spares availability and to listen to members’ and specialists needs including thoughts on new spares they think would be worth producing
We will also make available members’ recommendations for suppliers and information
Actions so far:
Secondhand spares held by the T.O.C. listing now on the web site and here
New spares listing now on the web site and here - awaiting information from a major supplier
Once we have all the new spares listings we will identify any gaps, work with the major suppliers and look to jointly or solely produce needed products
Started to build a list of modern equivalent parts suitable for Talbots
Started to build a list of firms that will undertake rebuilds of cars and/or components
Work with the STD re secondhand and new parts
Build a "facts" technical sheet for each model to help with servicing etc
Members have been asked for recommendations
Keep an eye on this thread for future developments!
