Have you tried SJ Sportscars (https://www.sjsportscars.com/)?

Thanks - good last resort, but hoping to find a used one. Doesn't need to be pristine as long as it's not bent.

Don't rule out a lower right leading wishbone!

You can try SJ Sportcars, but don't raise your hopes.  I ordered one from them and a couple of months later they cancelled my order.  Apparently they were waiting for Arch Motors to make one for them, and Arch Motors had better things to do. 

Some (or all?) type 65s got the same lower wishbone as the type 74.  There's a clue to that in the Lotus part number - A065C0043Z .

Changed the title to include Type 65. 

Thanks for the info!

Hi, I have the entire right and left hand assy.  including uprights, rotors and caliper.  I will not separate the entire corner.  I will probably post in the parts for sale section soon.
