The front end rebuild is going well - have the car completely stripped and 
full brace of replacement parts ordered.

I am still looking for a frame to front apron bracket - passenger side for the 
tr3A.  My new sway bar mounts to these brackets, and the pass side one is bent 
up in the lower channel.

I also need the frame brackets that hold the bump stop brackets.  Moss shows 
them on the frame and chassis page as # 57.

RR#1 got a vintage "Stirco" exhaust installed Saturday - I would guess from 
the late 60s.  Sounds relay sweet - once the old rust blows out it should look 
good too ;-) I am also refurbishing the period Lucas SLR driving lights to go 
on the badge bar I am making.

FYI  Cooper still makes a 165 SR 15 tire - the only one I could find outside 
of the Coker page.  Only $49.  I should get them tomorrow.

One question on the front calipers - If there is scoring in the outside third 
of the piston, will that cause any problems?  Seems to be outside where thy 
would contact the seals, but I yield to the advice of the list.

Thanks for your help- everyone.  I have referred to my old e-mail postings 
library on numerous occasions already!
