I am thinking of getting some C8 Wheel Spacers and Canadian Front Fairleads cast
Would there be any interest in getting multiples made ?

Did consider it but I havent got machinery to do it and the engineering workshops around here charge a absolute fortune .
There are a few casting places in the state that do a good job .Look more original also . I am waiting for a couple of quotes to get a idea of price .Making the moulds initially is the most expensive part apparently so the more you get made the better the price per unit

Default Wheel adapters

Hi, Look at this thread (#143). David DeWeese had some made from aluminium. If he has an engineering drawing that he could send to you it would lower your cost considerably.
