Another possible source is Robbie McLeod in Arkansas near Little Rock. Not
exactly next door for CA but I visited with the British Motoring Club of
Arkansas in 2009 and their clubhouse is bang next door to Robbie's place.
Acres and acres of old LBC's quietly dissolving into nothingness. I saw
several Frog Eye bonnets there and these are like hens teeth. The BMCA website
is currently under rebuild but I can give you an email address off list of one
of the club officials who may be able to make a connection for you. There's
lots of stuff outside but also an enormous covered warehouse as well. Rumour
had it that Robbie often supplied Moss with unobtanium.
