I just sold my '65 Rambler American (being born in Kenosha, I think I have a
genetic predisposition to AMC products). Getting parts was difficult. Few
aftermarket replacements were available. Many had to be NOS from a few US
suppliers. Hurray for the big three Triumph parts suppliers. I may not
always like their pricing or quality, but at least you can get the parts.
I stopped by my local NAPA store on the way home. Great guys, they always
dig to find my old car parts. On the back shelf, they had a BECK ARNLEY
parts catalog. There is supposedly one in every NAPA store. BECK ARNLEY
sells import car parts. It had quite a section on Triumph parts (brake
parts, ignition, engine, etc.), from 2's through 7's. A lot of gaps and I
am unsure on pricing, but it may be a local source of parts for a quick fix.
No financial interest, bla bla bla.
