Does anyone know if new wiring looms are available from commercial sources or members making them?

Thank you to the members that have replied, I would certainly have taken up the offers. BUT We have a Javelin restoration , a Jowett 10 restoration, a Javelin on the hoist for maintenance and are building an engine for another Javelin on the bench at the Jowett Car Club New Zealand shed. So we were ...

I am in the process of restoring a 1939 Jowett Ten and are looking to fit Lucas type 7 inch semi sealed lights The Jowett 10 headlights are 8 inch and I notice most are converted to 7 inch by the use of a reducing adapter/rings. These may have been made by Lucas for this very purpose to upgrade the ...

I have had a lace up vinyl steering wheel cover on my Javelin for a number of years now and is excellent for improving grip and appearance of old wheels. I am now looking to obtain another either vinyl or leather to fit a Jowett 17 inch diameter steering wheel Anyone have a tan one for sale or sugge...

You can also just fit a choke or bonnet bowden cable to the lever on the mechanical pump to prime it with a few strokes from inside the carwithout opening the bonnet. As for electric pumps I am currently dumping the SU on my Jupiter with its points and trialling a modern diaphram electric pointless ...

Has anyone recently installed a new diaphram into the mechanical fuel pump?
Do you know if it was NOS (unused old stock)or a recently manufactured item?
Is it suitable for modern unleaded fuels and maybe alcohol blends?
Where did you obtain the kit and approximate price?

Comments welcome

It is sad to advise that Leo Bolter passed away on Sunday 22nd July. Leo had been a member of the Jowett Car Club of NZ for about 40 years. He restored his Jupiter to original specifications including colour and pleats on the seats and the car won Best at Concours in the NZ Jowett Club for a number ...

Thanks for the offer Keith and I may take that up, but I guess I am considering the easy option of short circuiting the tap and making this one less thing to go wrong as long as I watch the fuel gauge which you rely on on for most cars. I understand that this tap was discontinued on later Jupiters (...

I have recently pulled apart a tap (normal/reserve) that is in the earlier Jupiter fuel lines and located behing the driver. The circular cork gasket, presumably 60 years old was distorted and torn. This was not the tap from my Jupiter but I feel my tap may be the source of an air leak into the fuel...

From initial information so far received I understand that there have be...
