The Spares Divisions of the Wolseley Car Club began soon after the formation of the club, with the donation of spares cars which were subsequently broken down for parts. Both the Christchurch Branch and the North Island Branch at Manawatu have established storage facilities for their parts.
Note that spares sales are to members only, however, it is inexpensive to join ($10 for the first year) and to remain a member ($40 annually).
North Island Branch at Manawatu
The Manawatu Branch has amassed a good collection of second-hand spares which are now stored in a rented shed in Pohangina, Palmerston North. North Island enquiries should be addressed to the Manawatu parts shed first or will be referred to Christchurch for anything unable to be supplied.
