Perhaps you could try this business in Adelaide and see what they have?

Thanks Pete, will ring in the morning although the parts I need are not available new or second hand anywhere on ebay, gumtree etc, if I am unable to get them I may have to scrap the project although I am already into it for around $2.5k and it was a freebie basket case.

G,day
What parts were you chasing for your Gold Wing?.
I have a mate who has a couple. He tossed the motor and replaced it with a VW unit and then upgraded it to a 4.4.litre V8 Leyland P76 motor

A friend involved with the Goldwing club suggested wingworks:

Thanks guys, I have 3 motors, parts needed are various frame parts, Wingworks only do the restore and won't sell parts and the Donnybrook is a later model, some parts will fit but not all changes were made after 77

I vaguely remember seeing one of these just after they came out. Hard to believe it's the humble beginning of a GL1800.
Nice work.
