Susan, 

Thanks for the good comment on my rambling rantings, I just hope I can
help others benefit from my past faux pax!  My latest scribblings have
appeared in the latest issue of British Car Magazine, the first of a
two-part article on Fluids and Filters (shameless plug!).

As for posting lists of parts, definitely do it!!  Private individuals
offloading old parts can have just what I am looking for, I read all
these parts lists carefully.  Even "business" types should be able to
provide a brief description of something new, like the aluminium
cylinder heads for MGA/B.  How else would we find out about them?  But
commercial info should be as brief as possible, with a url link to find
out more info.

Actually, you should NEVER get rid of any parts, you will always need
them again someday. Ten years ago, I parted out a RHD 4 cylinder GT, and
sold off/gave away/ditched various things like doors, floor mats, dash,
etc. The VERY SAME things I am now scrambling to find for my V-8
restoration!

Cheers, PK
