I tend to agree with this assessment, but it is NOT limited to MOSS. I have
used MOSS, VIC BRIT, and ABING SPARES to restore several cars and have
gotten excellent parts AND cheapie parts from all. It all depends on the
particular part. I think Moss interiors are very good, but some of their
Taiwanese chrome goodies absolutely stink. Overall, though, Moss is OK.
Bottom line is, "You pays your money and you takes your chances!
Safety Fast.
