Crash,
     Yes, this is the same bonnet we talked about before.  You called it a
British Heritage replacement, I didn't.  He got it at a Moss parking lot sale,
and that's really all I know about it, except I have seen it and see NO
difference in the bonnet on my 60.  You don't have to buy it.
     As far as new old stock used parts.  A misnomer.  What I meant to say is,
Tom will not sell you a used ORIGINAL part that isn't useable.  It may need
refinishing or replating, but it is 100% original and operable.  Sorry if I
mislead anyone.  Boy, you really have to be careful what you say around here.
