rvwp Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 Hi Guys, I have to renew both my Chassis plate and Body plate and need to know where to get the replacements stamped. I have purchased a replacement Chassis plate, but not Body plate as this looks like a simple job to make. The letter size looks like it should be 5mm (ish). I have a complete set of letter/number punches which are too large, dam it! I've had these for many years and only used them once. I am reluctant to buy another set of smaller punches as I will probably only again use them once and they will join the other tools that I shall never use and should be clearing out at my age . Anybody know where to get them stamped. Thanks Rich Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ianc Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 Have you tried the usual TR rebuilders, such as Revington, Racetorations, TRGB etc? Sometimes a car needs to have a new plate because the original is completely knackered - those on 4VC were in a terrible state in 1990 and Neil replaced them. I keep the originals in my study, of course. Ian Cornish Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) Hi Rich, one of the northern TR suppliers have stamped plates in the past.. TRBitz comes to mind but I may be wrong. I was wrong Roger Edited October 23, 2020 by RogerH Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stillp Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 I asked around a few local engineering shops. Found one with the right size stamps who did it for the price of a pint. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
