Dave Edmund of Eurocar Services should be able to help you out with 404 bits, this is his workshop number: 07-575 9784
Might take a week to get hold of him as he avoids the phone like the plague, but he is a pre 1990 Pug/Citroen/Renault specialist.

Hey Ron, what stuff are you looking for? There is a fairly active group of 404 owners (of which I am one). Mine is pretending to be a replica of the East Africa Safari cars.
There are 404 utes in NZ, I have records of 32 of the 72 originally produced, and at least one of the 504 utes, and of course the 403 currently on TM.
