[Spridgets] Short Supply of 1275s?

[rrengineer.mike at att.net (Michael MacLean)]

According to online magazine "Classic, Performance & Retro", Austin Allegra
owners club says Allegra owners should beware who is buying their cars.  It
looks like the supply of 1275 engines has dried up in the UK.  Mini owners are
buying up restorable Austin Allegra cars just for the 1275.  Of course this is
not what is happening to the version of 1275 we use, but could we someday see
the same kind of "shortage"?
