Being a ‘car’ person and not thinking of wider implications, his Lords and Masters gave him the go ahead for this publication to be created and to include all fasteners for the BL truck, earthmoving, bus and agricultural products as well. It was rumoured the person concerned hadn’t considered that additional requirement. I’m reliably informed they never did sort it out and as a ‘short term’ measure agreed that it would be fine to ‘borrow’ ref numbers from other companies in the group to overcome hurdles. I was one of the two personal assistants to BL’s CEO at the time and this re-cataloguing exercise for hardware caused more problems in production and parts supply than the collective warranty and build quality problems for the Austin and Morris Marina by far</span><span style='font-family:"Segoe UI Emoji",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-US'>😊</span><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-US'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-US'>Oh happy days…<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-US'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-US'>Jonmac<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-US'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span lang=EN-US>From:</span></b><span lang=EN-US> Triumphs [mailto:triumphs-bounces@autox.team.net] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Cliff Hansen<br><b>Sent:</b> 18 October 2017 02:26<br><b>To:</b> Sujit Roy <triumphstag@gmail.com>; Triumphs <triumphs@autox.team.net><br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [TR] Regarding a bolt not listed in the Standard Triumph Hardware Catalog<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Hardware part number is WU3857, that’s 5/16 x 7/8 UNC – one of the few screws that are not fine thread.
