Simon,

Not sure if this is helpful but sometimes any little trace can be that one you need to move forward.

I stumbled across a gentleman on Facebook. He was located in the states and had an impressive inventory of Campy's in various conditions from original to restored. Some in need of restoration. I remember spending a lot of time looking at his inventory and thinking about how he had carved out a nice little niche market. I could see from the 'sold' listings that he had moved an impressive number of wheels. Sadly, I can't seem to find him today.  I strongly encourage you to post in the DeTomaso groups on Facebook. I know some don't prefer that platform (and I concur with those feelings) but when you want to take a drink you must go where the water is. If you like, I can make the posting on your behalf and then relay the responses to you via email.

 

Good luck

For any old magnesium wheel, don't neglect to bake them every 10 years or so to re-anneal the stress build-up out of them. This is a technique I found working in aerospace and in the military that can be done at home in Mom's oven, as its done at low temp (275-300 F). Also works on Halibrands and other racing wheels. Not necessary on aluminum wheels.

Hi Simon,

There's a guy a couple of miles from me that has lots of parts.  His local Craigslist add runs weekly and the listing seems to imply he has new and used Campys.  Fair warning he seems to be high on the prices last time I was there. 

I looked thru his parts in the early stages of my Pantera journey.

I don't mind going to inspect parts for you if you can make contact with him.

Hopefully you can see the link here for his add.
