Some time ago I heard of a place that supplies new Moke side boxes.
Anyone know the name of the company?

There has been some NOS side panels on eBay lately. The guy seems to be selling enough bits to make several mokes. He must have stumbled across a huge hoard of ex-Leyland bits.

What I think I remember was someone making either whole floor panels with side boxes attached or just the boxes - galvanised but not genuine as they didn't have the indented areas in the sides.

Mini & Moke World were making `Mokes' and galvanising them, they were basically welded up out of flat plates.
Side pods had no indents.

Somebody is making new Moke shells in China now and shipping them in.
There was an ad in the last TME Mag. :wink:

Whether they have body numbers or meet relevant ADRs I have NFI.

David

last time I was up at Mini Automotive at Ipswich there were a couple of Moke shells in the spare parts yard. Might be worth giving Ken Nelson a ring to see if he can help you out.
