The man that rebuilt my Jupiter (and the Mk2 Jupiter plus sundry others) is keen to get hold of a pre WW1 Jowett. The pre war registrar is not aware of any cars tucked away, however Jowett Car Clubs you may know differently. Apparently there was a third pre ww1 Jowett that was taken to JCC UK meetings back in the 60's and no one knows of its fate. Do you?
Contact me in the first instance and I will put you in touch with Allan Fishburn who will build from bits if he needs to and is more than capable of fabricating chassis/body work if its not available
He is keen and does have the skills, so any salted away parts you might be prepared to sell would be used, not lost in a 40 year project

Re: Wanted Pre WW1 Jowett Car/Parts
Forty year project? What can you mean!
Mine is now 44 years - but 38 of those were in storage, so perhaps they don't count.
No parts lost (yet) but the dust!!

Re: Wanted Pre WW1 Jowett Car/Parts
6 years in the a doing of and it now runs (I saw the video) under its own power. The 38 in storage definitely don't count.
The danger most people see is that if the bits they have sold get buried in a project that never happens, (yours has) then they feel they have been wasted. Allan continues to amaze me with both his skill and speed of working.
