Seems to be some trouble in Paradise.
Little by slowly, I am getting a handle on this. As soon as I can get the fabricator to ship to the ones that are on my list, all this nightmare will be over. Hang in there.
Today my niece is going personally to rattle some cages. If they won't respond to her, I will have to go there myself and talk to the owner. I hate to have to spend that kind of money, but it's about time to put an end to this farce.

Tie rod ends
For all it is worth I have found the following info on the tie rods: all of these are old cars so it may mean nothing, however the Mini Cooper, 60-67, the Austin America,68-71 and MG1100 all use the fiesta unit. There is also some evidence the 82-83 T-bird w/ manual steering is the same.
If you want to check it out these 2 E-bay items may hold some promise for an immediate need.

I know there are others working on this in a m ore meaningful way, but this may be of some help. Maybe there is a British supplier.

Well guys,
More news. Today the fabricator said he'd already shipped the last kits. he did admit that he hadn't shipped when my niece had gone to talk to him and he had told her he'd already shipped them. I would say that you should be getting them within the next week, so please let me know when you receive your kit.
When they are received, I will be free to start filling the back orders I have for the rest of the kits already made. I will be contacting those guys that have already sent me their desire to buy a kit. When those are gone, I will take more orders and have them fabricated as I get those orders. Thanks again for all your patience. I am really sorry for all the frustrations and head aches.

That is good news Jose. Beer season has now moved to bourbon season so I expect progress will be slower with more leaning than squatting.

Not yet Jose but I am leaning a little more than last week.
Hi Alferdo,
It is 5:05 here in Bucaramanga, which is 2:05 in California, where the fabricator is. I am going to call him this morning myself, so he can give me tracking numbers or something. I am fed up with these promises, promises, and nothing gets done. I sure hope I don't need to go there personally to get this all straightened out, because it would cost me a lot. I will post what they say.
