Does anyone have any information on the tool bag for the early Longbridge BN4? Perhaps a photo?
I would like to know
1 - dimensions?
2 - material - plastic or cloth?
3 - number of pockets?
4 - cotton ties? rather than plastic?
thanks for any assistance that can be shared

Andrea thanks for the mga website and your photos. However, your page on Picasa is no longer available. What happened?

the reference to Roger and Gary's book from p 133 appears to be in error for the early Longbridge. They note that the bag should be a simple black plastic envelope-shaped bag that had two black plastic tie-straps heat-riveted to the bag. This appears to be true for the later BN4s, but per the parts book for the Longbridge there is a different BMC part # for the early bag, and also an additional part # listed for the 2 ties for the bag. This would be quite similar to the MGA bag of the period.
so I am still interested in the true Longbridge bag wherever it may be?

I have make one modification on the album from private-topubblic
that can be change some part of the address
-this is the new address-
I am interested in the development of your study and convinced that early Longbridge cars have different Tool set
probably same or similar at late BN2 tool bag
I see your reply to Derek -
I look around to find a BN2 tool Set Photo to insert in the album for comparation and valutation
I can ask to Patrik the Australian owner of the single BN3 existent- if the car have the original Tool Set to make one shot for us
Stay connected
Cheers
Andrea
