One of the items I have not been able to trace is the rubber band that goes around both the brake compensator activator rod and the Panhard rod. It was originally listed as part number 101724.
I found a classic car parts dealer in Italy who still had them listed on his webshop, but in the event he had unfortunately sold a lot of his Sud, Sprint, ARNA and 33 parts and no longer had stock of this item.
Here is a picture of what they look like as a NOS part. I wondered if any other Forum members had come across this problem when rebuilding their cars in recent years and if so what solution they had arrived at to replace this part. I am also unsure how important it is and what the effect (if any) of not having it in place is likely to be
