Ron,
You might check with FASPEC British Parts in Portland. (503) 232-1232. If
anyone around this (Portland) area has one they might just be able to get it
for you. They are the closest thing to a real LBC place around here. I'm
pretty sure there are some sources in Seattle, maybe your relatives could
help? Just a thought since you will be coming right through Portland on
I-5.
