I'm looking for a pair of Jupiter rear bumpers for my SA.
I'm lead to believe a few were reproduced some years ago and a forming die was made.
Does anybody have a pair of bumpers for sale or does the club have these dies as I may be able to get some more made if they are available.

I have a few pairs but they belong to future restoration cars - you are quite welcome to loan a pair for pattern should you wish - its the first time that I have heard of a forming die being held by the club but I can make further enquiries - should you have to get a pair made then its probably best that we advertise the fact and see if any other members are short of a pair therefore hopefully reducing the production costs - Chris

Hi Chris.
Many thanks for reply and the generous offer.
From the enquiries I've made it would seem that a few owners would be intending new bumpers so it may be worth making more enquiries about getting them made uf you can please.
If no luck I'd like to borrow a pair if that's ok and make a pair.
Regards
Michael

The Jupiter Owners Auto Club are currently having them remade. If you contact them and join, if you are not a member, they are currently taking orders for a batch of bumpers. Why bother trying to reinvent the wheel!

Maybe J.C.C Spares and J.O.A.C could let each other know what's in the pipeline for re-makes.
This may save duplication and add to requirements, especially as we are affiliated Clubs.
The more the merrier, (and cheaper).
Perhaps we could have a designated person in each Club to network on spares.

Tony - I can assure you that this already happens directly between JCC & JOAC (and has done for some time) - likewise with AUS & NZ
