A400 ash tray
 

I`m trying to find someone who makes the A400 ashtray knobs, or handles,. I need two. but like other parts if I have to have them made is there any demand out there for some.

The gentleman that some of us met at the Texas meet passed away prior to finishing them. There are ash trays out there that are very similar in looks however their origination was on aircraft as I recall. Have you spoken with Bill Underwood or Bill Edstrom on the http://www.a400group.com/ regarding this?

I dont have the A400 clubs newsletter with me right now but I just got the newest one this week. There is another person making the ash trays now. They are available. Maybe another A400 club member will chime in.

Superior Car Parts bought the inventory and dies from Gary Tatro's family after his death. As far as I know they are not yet producing them. I have talked to them and had emails from them as to their proposed schedule but they have missed that by over a year. They are very hard to communicate with.

The 400 Website is temporally out because of maintenance.

Sorry!

What Larry stated above is right on, so no one is making these at the moment.

I guess I am wrong as stated below by Bill.

Gary had a lot of knobs made as I supplied an original knob to use as a patfern so Superior should have these, if they do not email me as I may have an extra set and may be able to help you. Bill Edstrom
