    bolt brands

    I'm cleaning up a box of old sunbeam bolts and I discovered that there are 4 different makes of the 1/4-28 bolts- Frazer, Sparts, Wiley and Auto. I'm pretty sure the Auto brand was used on my later tiger so the others must have come from a series 4 alpine and a mk1a tiger but both cars were in...

    A couple of years ago I bought a mk2 that had a numbers correct trans but a rear end from a mk1. I realize this is incredibly unlikely but does anyone know the whereabouts of rear axle #A67-297?

    I have a 1967 alpine transmission that needs rebuilding and I would like to give it to someone that can use it. There is no bellhousing but most everything else seems to be there. I don't know what the original problem was- the guy I bought the car from bought another transmission instead of...
