Thanks Keith for your reply and I have managed to narrow it down to either type 14 or 16 GIRLING shock absorbers. I can confirm this tomorrow when I remove a Caliper as I have the dimensions for both types which are readily available from AH Spares and others.
Thanks again everyone.
Graham.

Can anyone tell me the make of the Calipers on the front disc brakes please, I'm pretty sure that they are Girling, certainly not Dunlop. I can't find any part numbers on mine.
Many thanks, Graham.

Can anyone point to a supplier of the veneered dashboard panels on the Aceca or someone who can renovate the original panels that I which still have on my car. Thanks.

I have just purchased a AC Aceca.I would like to obtain a electrical wiring diagram amongst other items
which are I'm sure going to be useful to me.Also operator's hand book and maintenance handbook, that's if such items exist.
The car is in excellent condition with a registered mileage of 29,000 miles since 1960 which can be validated by past MOT's and service documents(I have yet to validate this.

It  presently has a Triumph TR6 engine and gearbox installed and it looks like a very professional installation but I haven't driven the car since purchase as it has been in storage for some considerable time and I'm sorting out many electrical faults now but the car will be on the road next week weather permitting.
I also have with the car a fully rebuilt original to the car AC engine and gearbox. If anyone has history of the car then I would be most interested to know.
Many thanks. Graham Carpenter. Hereford.
