Hi All.
Mate of mine over the West is looking for a head gasket for the OHV Karrier Bantam (Humber Hawk 1957-1964).
He's even MORE hopeless than I when it comes to computers (and thats saying something!)
Have sent messages to both the Hillman?Rootes group in NSW and the Humber Club of S.A. awaiting replies
Pretty sure I have heard or read on this forum, about hard to get head gaskets. DONT need full set unless it is the only way they can be purchased.
If anyone can throw up a link, or even better, a phone number or a postal address, would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Dave_64

Didn't I read on here about renovating preload gaskets, old days with silver frost, new days with some silicon gasket goo?

Dave, i think it would be well worth a phone call to Auto Surplus in Victoria. (03) 9873 3566

At least that is where i would start looking.

Unfortunately first link is for the 1725cc "Hillman" engine, (Hawk is 2.6 Litre).

Second link is for the side valve engine, this bloke has OHV,
Hawk engine
BUT, thanks for the leads, worth contacting anyway!
