Sorry to ask for non-Healey related parts assistance:

I need a set of spare front brake shoe frames (used would be just fine) to 
send to Porterfield for relining with Carbon/Kevlar shoes.  The shoe frames 
carry the designation #219 in the FNSI catalogue and they are 9" in diameter 
and 
1.5" or 1.6" wide.  They would be for a 1958 Elva Courier that I recently 
purchased and were also supposedly used on contemporary Hillmans, Standards, 
Saabs, 
Sunbeams, Singers and Rileys, maybe others.  

I have combed all the standard parts houses and it seems that 219's have been 
discontinued.  I called Kip's Orphans but they were not encouraging.  Any 
suggestions on where I might find such obscure parts will be greatly 
appreciated. 
 

Best--Michael Oritt
