[Mg-mmm] PA/NA front cam stand

[DB35PA at aol.com]

Bob, 
On PA1823 I was able to verify against the Factory records (Dispatch Dept  
Form), 
Chassis
Engine
Starter
Body number
Gearbox number
Dynamo number
rear axle number
Bonnet Number
 
Of all the copies of various build papers, sales/delivery and after sales  
service repairs... no record of radiator number for mine.

Thanks  Clive,
I am aware of that and would prefer to get the pair. So let me  revise my
request for a pair, top and bottom, front cam stand for a PA/NA  engine.

If I can find a bottom only, I expect to have to "fettle" the  bore by
possibly changing the dowel pins and then line honing/boring all  caps in
line.
Right now I have no bottom, so something to work with  would help.

Now if you have a matching bottom and top surplus to your  needs.  so much
the better.

I have on several occasions had to  fit mis-match main bearing crank caps on
XPAG engines, no big deal, you get  it as close as you can by filing one 
side
of the joint, then possibly  brazing on  the other side to make up the
difference. then line bore.  Works OK, just a nuisance.


NEW QUESTION:
Can someone please  advise if all or any major parts of the MMM cars are
numbered to match the  chassis?  I have found numbers on top of several rear
axle  casings,  but these numbers do not seem to relate to the car.
Is the  radiator numbered?
Radiator shell numbered?

The original bonnet  hinge is obviously chassis numbered with the colour
coding. ,

Thanks  to all that responded.

Try and get the matched  pair,  two random halves often dont fit.
