Major parts supply problem

[jackq]

I posted a while back about a 72 BGT that got wrecked here in town. Belongs to a pal and we redid this car about a year and a half ago. Anyhow, insurance company came thru and all was well...that is until I called Victoria and was told they have NO parts in stock...rt fender, hood, grill, bumper..etc. I was shocked. 8-10 weeks before anything is available?? Then I called Moss. Talked to a guy, told him what I was looking for, was nice and said let me put you on hold for a minute. 5..10..15..gave up. Called back..same thing. I need a fender to get the front jigged back in as it is slightly tweaked to the drivers side. If I can't find at least a fender looks like I'll be forced to start stripping the one off the CGT builder I have up for sale. Seems a shame but I'm about out of options. Any ideas as where I might find some parts??

do they need to be new? Somewhere I have contact information for a guy in Ohio who has a yard full of MGs & Triumphs.

Jack, give Ted at TSI Imports a call. He has a website, but it is very rough, as he's not that much into computer display technology. Also, I believe there is another MG supplier in the Northwest besides BPNW...

Northwest British Parts - I think they're in Portland,Ore.

Talked to Bill...the owner and as long as its not all rusted and hammered used is good. Thx for the names, I'll try them today.

I'd call Christian Hollum Imports 514-631-2111

With the help of quite a few people...the fender and hard to find grille are on the way from Oregon and the bumper was shipped from Victoria. Aside from a new set of running lites(hopefully) we have everything on the way. Car sould be ready to pick up from the frame shop this morning.
