80 B1 parts required

I'm looking for a steering rack and various other parts for a 1976 80GL, any help in locating new or used spares for my B1 would be much appreciated.

Manual or power steering ?

As far as I'm aware all 80 B1's from 73 to 78 had manual steering, its a manual I need but if a power option exists, I'm happy to convert to power steering.

Ok I do have both, the manual one in particular is unused.

Can you drop me some part numbers / pics to ensure we are talking the same part

I don't have a part number for the steering rack and its still fitted to the vehicle so I took a couple of pictures but I can't seem to upload them to this reply, perhaps you could upload a picture of the rack you think it is and I'll confirm if it's the correct one or not, or you could email me direct at john_staunton@hotmail.com I'm also looking for a single Solex carb, a set of alloys and a dash board in better condition than the one I have which is badly split across the speaker grill and also has a radio cut into the front of it, which I would like to remove, I realise most surviving dash boards will have the odd split here or there so I would just like anything that's an improvement on the one I have.
