Hi
Can anyone supply me with a handbrake lever to fit a rootes arrow range model . i.e hillman hunter , humber sceptre, singer vogue, or even commer van.

Now I suspect that's a part even I didn't retain when I broke the old Minx, but I will check my store tomorrow just in case!
thanks chris
take it to bits and weld the teeth up, refile to shape, it will last for years.
I got a friendly machine shop to take pity a few years ago and do this for me, as well as repair metal fatigue in the lever arm.
Admittedly, it helped that I already knew them, and that I wasn't screaming for it to be done yesterday. One of the guys there worked on it in his "spare time," and charged me $25. It was better than new when he'd finished with it.
That's actually not such a bad idea. I've done it with one of the window winder quadrants on my Merc; it's a common failing on these, yet I fixed it in half an hour with no financial outlay beyond a few inches of MIG wire!
I'll give the welding idea serious consiferation if I can't find a replacement thanks guys
guess what I found on flea bay for £1.99 :-))
