Karcraft or Heritage MG / Mini will have everything you need between them. Both in Sydney and both in the phone book.

www.whitepages.com.au

:wink:

EDIT: Both do very prompt shipping to anywhere on OZ.

I've actually found heritage at smithfield to be cheaper than Karcraft on most things they stock. Look them up in the phonebook (might be listed as Heritage MG).

Ask for Max - nice bloke.

Nothing against Max ,or Heritage- a catalog with prices in would be nice, though!
For me, Karcraft is quicker to get to.

I don't need anything in particular at this stage, it's just now that we are starting to get into the thick of things with the car I wanted to know the best places to go to if I couldn't find a part from someone online etc..

But will definately come and have a chat to you's on Sunday anyhow :wink:

Yeah, I haven't bought anything from them, but I had to deal with them about advertising for our club mag and they seemed like really good blokes. I know they bring in a lot of stuff from the UK so I'm betting they have some good gear lying around up there.
