Yes, the side repeater (indicator) lights - the round type that came with the President. Can't post pictures as those are in Lucknow. Had found an old shopkeeper who couldn't sell his stock - he had around eight pairs in stock and I picked them up.

What years/models had Aluminium window cranks and door levers ? My 1974 president seems to have chrome plated ones.

And some window cranks (the ones sold in the 90's) came with lousy plastic that would fall apart rather easily.

lights

On a recent trips to Spare Parts shops and from ajay I managed to get few light's Parts for Elegent & Select, I could not resist posting them.

P.S. Any body requiring Select Tail lamp Lenses, I can get them ( I saw one full red one) there might be amber and red color also.

Ajay you gave me Elegent Parklight lenses (3 nos), Elegent Tail light lens (1 No), rest all in much better quality and at cheaper price I got parts from 1. Raipur (Chattisgarh), what ever I could lay my hands on.

2. Select tail lamp lens and elegent parklight assembly from bangalore.


CrackedHead Let me know if you require select tail light lens.

Manish, I have a 1973 president that requires the metal "Premier president" badge.

I see that you have one of those. Could you tell me where I can find one.

Similar but not the same. There is a slight taper to these lights also there is no chrome base. The 1100 repeater lights were common to some Maserati's.

The indicators were used on most Italian cars of the era, Ferraris and Maseratis and Alfas included.

If you are looking for a stop gap temporary and cheaper arrangement, the side indicators from the Uno are fairly similar in design and size.

Guys - I need to source a "President" badge for my car (like the one that manishalive posted in the picture above).

I have other parts from the Premier president that can trade for one -
- The original side repeater lights (have a couple of extra sets - brand new)
- The original speedometer/instrument cluster with the silver background (used - but in working condition)
- The original wheel caps (used but in good shape - need chrome)

If anyone is looking for these or any other parts for a Premier president then please get in touch so that we can join forces and help each other.
