Moss  has them listed as an active part, but does not have any in stock at 
the  
moment. One vendor has between 10 & 15 pieces in stock according to  their 
computer. Either this is the last of them or they are on  backorder.  

BTW, this part is also listed for use as the buffer  for the "Not Available" 
Torque Reaction Arm for the TR4 (Moss PN  031-651)  The Torque Reaction Arm 
is 
often missing and seldom missed,  but it came with the car.  Mine IS on TR4 
#197 
and it must work  somehow because mine shows banging marks on the contact 
area 
for the  buffer and it is slightly bent due to extreme  use.




Hum,
I bought a supposed NOS TR4 part on e-bay just because it included one of  
the unodtainium TR4 bonnet buffers.  As I recall it was motor mount related  
but 
I am not sure and I could not find the part on my car at all! Needless to  
say anyone finding a supply of the flat TR4 bonnet buffer thingies has a gold  
mine on thier hands!  Buy all remaining stock and enjoy the rewards on  e-bay! 
I am bidding for sure, I have a couple of spares but two TR4's needing  them.
Cheers,
Darrell
