[Mgs] [Mgb-v8] Specialists

[Barrie Robinson]

I am not sure if this went out?  My entry just has a blue spot 
against it which I think means it did not go out ?

HERE IT IS

I don't know about you chaps but I am constantly amazed at the number
of "specialists" out there that are not generally known.  I have
found an outfit in this Province who makes valves - He made the
complete set of valves in stainless steel for my 1955 Aston at half
the price for ordinary ones from the "normal" supply source.   I had
my generator and starter rebuilt at another "specialist" in California for an
unbelievably reasonably low price,  I have just discovered a UK
outfit that remanufactures distributor caps for all Lucas units.  So
there are quite a few of these people who do great stuff but cannot
qualify for the British Car Cottage Industries web site as they are a
commercial concern

SO... I am starting a section on the BCCI web site for these
people.  The criteria are that the work/product must be made by them
and is not a bought in item for resale.  It must be outside the realm
of "consumer products" - so a tire manufacturer, windscreen washer
fluid, or oil supplier would not qualify.  The concern must have,
currently, a low profile so while someone like Moss makes unique and
desirable products (supercharger etc) they would not qualify as their
promotional effort is huge.  Would sort of look like this...

VALVES
               Bing Bong Blast Inc. makes both inlet and exhaust
                valves for modern and classic cars from samples.

REAR PLASTIC LENSES
               CeeMeGo Inc offers reproduction plastic lenses for rear
              lights for British cars.

MGB SUSPENSION
               Bob Upandown Ltd, UK, can supply coil over spring front
               suspension for most MGBs.

(The section listings will be in alphabetical order!)

Fast Cars were fast of the mark and are already on the list !!!!!!!!!!


If you know anyone who would fit into the Specialist section please
send me contact details.
