I have a 1974 Matra Bagheera series 1. 1294cc engine. I am looking for a head gasket as my car is leaking fluid into the cylinder. If you can help, please contact me docmirror@yahoo.com

I am in Aledo, Texas, USA. Believe me, they are difficult to find in the colonies!

Thanks Spyros. got your email, and some good references. Still no luck on the head gasket unless I buy from Simon. a bit pricey with hsipping from EU.

I've sent them an email. They have a listing of N11446 for the head gasket set for Pugeot 309 1.1, 1.3 Talbot engine. Maybe that right, we'll see.
Thanks,

David, just found your post. I still need one. Please let me know about shipping and price. I will take yours, and thanks for keeping me on the road. Email sent also.

David was kind enough to send me a head gasket. I owe him something for it. Just arrived a few days ago.
But, I made a huge mistake and let my 17 year old son drive the car. I've been gentle on the clutch, but he burned it up in about 10 minutes. Sigh, never ends. I'll be looking for a clutch disk, pressure plate, and release bearing now. I think I better contact MatraMagic.
Once again, if anyone has sources for these parts, I would be grateful. In the US, we have no source for any Matra parts.
Thanks David, let me know what I owe you for the gasket.

Oh yes, I need help. I've got the plan to get the car apart next month before it gets murderously hot here in Texas. I've asked around about rebuilding and the plate is no problem, but no one will try the pressure plate. That's the sticker.
Let me know price and availability, and I'll send you some Pounds, or Euros, or whatever.
Thanks,
Doc
