I for one, have stopped buying from Moss just on principle.

Fred has a point folks. I (we) have been putting up with "moss" stuff
long enough; one never knows what one is going to get. I got wimpy
looking rubber hose that goes inline from the block to the oil pressure
gauge for the Bugeye and for the MGA, I get this real thin braided hose
that looks nothing like the original. I know the idea is to get parts
that will help keep our cars running, but most of the stuff is junk. We
should band together and pledge to send all the subpar stuff back. A
few thousand returns and they should get the hint...... well maybe.
Thanks for letting me vent, rant, well ok, RAVE! :-)
