Chassis/Car plates
#1
Is anybody still supplying these plates made from Aluminium? I have recently ordered set's from two different suppliers only to be disappointed when stainless steel plates arrived.

I have sympathy for you IAN.

I had heard the supplier over here had made them in stainless.

I guess the second supplier you have gone to, has stocked the part from the importing supplier.

I was told you can't stamp the numbers into stainless.

I make the chassis plate, to go onto the Ruby chassis. ( in vitrous aluminium ). But in small numbers and a quality material they are not cheap at £7.00 but nobody else makes them. So they do sell from time to time.

The customer who told me about the stainless ones, asked if I'd do some aluminium ones. But I can't see it being worth will at the price they have to be.

I'm surprised this one hasn't been brought to the forum sooner.

Tony.

Yes, I now stock the aluminium ones again.

On the subject of these replacement plates, has anyone a recommendation of punches with something like the original font?

I've been disappointed with some I've bought recently (Not David's).  Aluminium, but with an incorrect font.

A quick update, one of the original suppliers has since come back to me offering to send some Aluminium plate's free of charge..... All's well that ends well.
