I looked at their web site and they appear to have a VERY limited selecton
of parts for MGB and a few Triumph models. I do not know about wasting time
other than the fact that it took him much more time to vent than to give you

be the type of vendor i would wish to transact business with particularly if
there were a problem. I would strike him off my list had he ever been there
but his company is certainly low on my radar screen.
