What's the best source for witworth tools sockets wrenches new used are both an option thanks Mark
 
Just out of curiosity, what car do you have other than a Midget that has Whitworth sizes? Your Midget is almost all UNF (Unified Thread) which is the same as SAE, though I know there are a few odd sizes.
 
I have a 59 sprite that has a few whitworth fittings - like the gearbox drain plug. A full set of metric 6 point sockets fill in the gaps between the SAE sizes. Between the 2, I have always found something that works.
 
Got mine from MatCo tools representative. My Snap-on, MAC, and Cobalt had to order them. Might try on-line search as most Marque centered sights offer them. Some of the vendors here might have them and then there is EBAY and Craigslist.
