My life with British Cars started with a1953 Morris Minor MM.
I steadfastly refused to pay the exorbitant prices demanded by
the local dealer. Ipestered a lot of other car parts people
to help me find substitute parts whenever possible. One of the
kindly patient parts people suggested to me that I start a log
book and write into it all the part numbers that I found.
I took this kindly mans advice and did just that. Sadly the old
Morris had to be given a Viking funeral {fire but no boat on
the water} but I did retain the log book {sadly misplaced now}.
For every subsequent foriegn car that I owned I had a log book.
I could at one time tell the part # of the rear shocks on my
TR4 in Monroe Gabriel, Armstrong {the after market Armstrong}
Koni Etc. When I sold these cars the log went with it much
to the delight of the new owner. Ihope my old warrior's tale
wasn't too boring, and who knows it may inspire.
