Any parts sources [SF area] that are NOT by mail?

I live in Berkeley, east of San Francisco. Since my local MG mechanic closed up shop a few years ago, and all the "import" parts stores seem to only cater to asian brands, I've been getting all parts by mail. However, it sure would be convenient if I could buy some parts locally. For example, I forgot to add a valve cover gasket to my last order and don't feel like paying $10 shipping and waiting a week for just a gasket. Am I right in my assumption that I just can't buy these types of parts locally, or are there still some sources out there?
 
There used to be a place in Santa Clara called O'Connor Classics, but they just closed their doors, however they do have an eBay store. https://stores.ebay.com/OConnor-Classic-Autos

Other than O'Connor's I don't know of any other MG parts supplier in the Bay Area. I think there is a supplier in Sacramento though. Do a Google search for MG Parts Suppliers, Bay Area, to see what comes up.

I get lots of parts for my Jaguar from BAP Geon in Daily City
 
Last year when I was attending the Morgan Hills show (Oct.) two vendors were from the Bay Area, not sure exact location but I think one was around San Jose.
