The last parts I bought from Moss (UK) were of very "Far-East" quality -
"TRIUMPH" badging for the back end of a TR3 (same as early Herald). These
parts showed little relation to the original parts, and are doubtless from
the same source as those available from Moss California! I've honestly never
been very impressed by Moss manufactured parts, though they have been the
only game in town for many components.
        Cheers,
                Bill Davies.
