I'm looking for a US distributor for parts for the SK (Weber copy) sidedraft carb. I called Moss Motors, who used to sell them, and was referred to TWM Induction, just down the street in Goleta, CA.

List members, Anyone have a good source for New Old Stock chrome rear MGB bumpers? I know there were a couple of companies advertising them a few years ago, but does anyone have any now? Failing that

I just replaced the fuel pump on my '64 B (an ancient AC motor-driven pump that looks big enough to fuel a B-17) with a Purolator/Facet electronic one. Yeah, I know I should have gone back to the SU,

The driver's side door on my '64 MGB is looking pretty well worn--the crack of doom has appeared and it looks like someone took a screwdriver to the latch and bent the rear edge of the door up a bit.

This is a trivia question for which I don't have an answer: Why did MG use so many different engine restraint solutions? Different rods, different pins, GTs with no rod at all. I can see where 3 syn
