Wiles Junior Cooker Parts
Gents,
Looking for leads on Wiles Junior Cooker parts (2 wheel). No, I haven't got all steamed up and bought one, I'm making inquiries for a friend who is not on MLU. Parts would need to be available for purchase, and the list is extensive - virtually all the small parts that make up the cooker plumbing, and the fire irons. Any/all help appreciated. Thanks Mike C

Cooker
Mike
A chap in the QLD MV group has got one, I've seen his posts and pics of it on a forum somewhere. I think our own Euan Mcdonald on this forum has one as well. . Your friends best bet would be to locate another one, maybe more complete, and make one from two .

Yes, Mike, that would be the best option. At this stage, all options are on the table, I think!
Anyone out there with a 'spare' Wiles Junior' they would like to sell?? Mike C

Mike, have you tried Ian Tankard? He has a few juniors mixed up in his amazing yard.
Regards Rick.

Hi Mike, Rick,
I have been keeping an eye out for bits as you do and the last one that came up for sale out of SA Jack from Geelong bought. Jack is also looking for bit to rebuild his. Its very hard to contact Ian Tankard as he dosent have a phone or power any more. I do see him at club meeting every now and then, I will follow him up. Mike, what state is your man in?

Hi Euan,
Thanks for the info. He's not in a state, he's in a country far, far away. Purchase would be through a local (Aust) intermediary. Mike C

That Qld chap may be me.
In fact there are about half a dozen up here that I know of. Parts are not easy to come by. I would find it hard to part with anything to someone that you don't know their name or even which country there in. They might be the type of person that if you ran into them in another country at an MV event they don't have the common decency to say hi. Cheers Jeff
