Huw,
As you will be in the Salisbury area, try heading north to Wootton
Bassett (near Swindon in Wiltshire) and visit Paul Cull, who is an old
friend and Triumph Trader/Restorer - he has a good stock of used spares.
Try calling him on (01793) 853033 for directions. Mention my name and
you might get a better price...8~}
John Kipping (01203) 645333 is always recommended, but I've only seen
him advertise rebuilt carb sets on an exchange basis - he's also not
very close to where you're travelling.
Steve Gill is also good for used spares, and being near Pontypool in
South Wales should be quite convenient - (01495) 774953.
I hope this is of some help,
Regards,
Bill.
