Larke Hoskins never sold ST stuff and neither did Ausfield the NSW distributor while I worked there, ( I worked for both). P & R Williams may have brought the stuff in directly. I can't recall any dealer near Zetland but they came and went. It it was before 1972 I wouldn't know anyway as I was not involved. I guess by the time I started to get involved the Mini was losing its competition usefullness and the demand for ST parts was waning.
Finally remembered
then went searching....
Lancaster-BMC
NSW Distributor
73 Belmont Street
Alexandria
[thats off Fountain Street, turn left into Belmont going South, and Lancaster's were right on the corner]
and
137 Palmer Street
Sydney
I used to call in regularly and buy something small and then spend an hour stoogeing around dreaming over the special tuning bits.
1966-1969ish for sure
