Absolutely no apologies needed, Randall. If I write something in the
wee hours now, even I can't understand it - let alone anyone else. Sorry worry
not

Aha, aha, AHA!
We're talking at cross-purposes and we're looking at different
lists!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My list is as published by old Joe Lucas in Birmingham
and the other is my genuine, original, Stanpart Accessory List printed in
Coventry by WW Curtis per pro S-T. 
I see that your list is 'the colonial
version' with an address in New York. Against that background 'Old Joe'
obviously did print a cross-ref for the North American market in North America
but 'Old Joe' in Birmingham UK didn't cross-refer his parts to other auto
maker numbers. So you're right - and I'm right, 'cos we're looking at
different publications. Simples!
