    If you're asking if CAE mechanical parts are being repoped.. not that I know of. However CAE was a prolific supplier for many years so there's still parts floating around, e-bay,swapmeets etc. That probably doesn't do you much good down in N.Z. though. What kind of stuff are you looking for?

    I believe plans are still available. When up in Indy for the 500 this May, I saw a very nice CAE style car that was, in essence, built new from scratch. Gary

    Rich & Sandy Davis (Davis Motors, formerly of San Jose; moved in the '90s to Las Vegas?) Sprint Car store, don't know if they're still going.
    Rich had a good stock of of discontinued CAE parts, carried Mike Maxwell ch***is parts.

    He had an old (1956 CAE car less engine; Chev V8, previously flathead) that I waited a day too late for, missed it! Wanted to put it on the street. Lem Tolliver did that with a stretched Maxwell ch***is, car had the looks of a '40s-era Indy roadster.

    TRy a search for Davis Motors, although some of our HAMB bros are avid Sprint Car builders/crew members/drivers...there is a whole network of racing car genre!

    There's a guy here in Hamilton NZ, with one. The guys at Rocket Speed Equipment might put you in touch if you give them a call.

    This is an old post but do you still have that axle and a photo of it? I’m looking for a model similar to a CAE Model 130-A setup
