[Spridgets] AN5

David,

I didn't find any clips with the assembly for the steering wheel.   Should I 
ask Moss for them?   (It's a pain having to grope around on the floor 
looking for the thing.   I discovered crossing the gap between the steering 
wheel bolt and the brush with a steel washer sounds the horn, but felt this 
was not in keeping with the spirit of an AN5.)

I had 3 clips for the hood badge, but couldn't find the one I dropped on the 
floor.   The badge feels a bit loose, and having lost the last one because 
it was loose, want to avoid that happening again.   Do you think an 
automotive store would carry them?

I see you used the word "bonnet" in your e-mail, and take it this means you 
are in England.   Do Bugeye's cost more or less than here in the US?

I used to dash around the Kentish country side in my first AN5.   Very 
enjoyable.

Do you have a picture of your MGA you could send me, please.

Michael
