I was going to say that Baines have started manufacture of these. They have also started manufacture of rubber exhaust hangers as well for Dolomites.
They appear to make quality parts , is there chance of them producing other rubber based parts for our cars ? They produce stuff for the big Triumphs so they are willing to produce for small product runs.
Old red.
I'm sure they could, but they may yet be disappointed as to how small a niche market our cars provide; in a little over four years, we've managed to sell a grand total of 27 accelerator pedal rubbers to our members. If we manage to sell the remaining 13 we have in stock, now that the market is flooded, the Club will just about break even on the investment we made. Fortunately, our price remains competitive to most, and comparable to the cheapest I've seen advertised thus far
To fair a pedal rubber isn't like a set of tyres, they don't wear out that quickly, so they are hardly likely to sell them in vast quanities.
Saying that, I find the economics of classic car parts baffling. With only a few hundred vehicles on the road for some models, I can't work out how supplies ever get the investment in tooling back, let alone make a profit.
