Runamoke still in business?
Looking for a quote on a hood and seat cushions.... Can't seem to get a response to e-mails. Are they still trading?
If so, would someone local to them ring 'em up and ask 'em to check their inbox?
I've got too much Welsh blood in me to pay the international phone rate.......

have you got any response meanwhile?
I had some contact in November last year but since December there is no response.
As spring is coming closer it seems I have to call him by phone.

Re: Runamoke still in business?
Sorry I didn't revisit this thread with an update.
I did purchase a hood, spare tyre cover, and 4 seat cushions from RunaMoke. Quite happy with the outcome. If I remember, it cost somewhere a bit north of $1,000US.
I did run into one small problem though. The new turnbuckle pieces on the seat cushions didn't want to latch up with my old turnbuckles on the seats. I had an upholsterer friend sort it out.
I pulled one of the rear seats so he had a test piece and realized at that time that I rarely had any use for the rear seats. So, I had the upholsterer make up a large single cushion for the rear & stuck the two seats up in the attic for safe keeping.
