22/06/14: An urgent plea for help

Sorry all has been quiet on the 2599 front, but we have a major dilemma that is severely hindering progress with the restoration. We are currently struggling to find four anchor pins (similar to the one pictured below) for the brakes, as the ones Tim has taken off are life expired. We also require urgent information as to whether they are generic to most vehicle types and can be sourced simply by visiting a scrapyard, or whether these type of anchor pins are unique to the Bristol RE/Alexander X-type combination.

If anyone can help in any way, or can put the group in touch with anyone who may be able to help, please either leave a message under this blog post, or get in touch by emailing Dan Stone at the address below:
