I found lots of Prefect/Anglia parts in Canadian junkyards.
Also the quarter-mile and hot rod crowd loves to convert these cars to dragsters
or street rods and in so doing heave out all of the original bits. I found a
perfect steering box for my VI (#67) by going to the drags and talking to the
owner of a Thames panel van with a GMC 6-71 blower sticking up through the
hood. I
also got his old back axle with the higher numerical ring and pinion (Demon
tweek).
