Re: [Healeys] water pumps and other repro parts

Hi Bruce, no surprise in your reply. I would like to point out that we 
should not look to the many restorers out there that do a magnificent 
job at restoring our cars to a far higher standard than they were ever 
built to originally. There are some real craftsmen out there. However 
they can also only use the parts that are available. We all need to let 
the original suppliers of faulty parts know we don't see it as 
acceptable otherwise the problems will continue. And if quality 
replacements are not available some measure of none original 
modifications should be seen as acceptable. I have great sympathy for 
the restorers out there doing their best to produce quality 
craftsmanship and let down by poor quality parts.
Regards
Larry Varley
