[Mg-t] cars2 the movie

You are mostly correct.  There were few BSW fasteners on the T.  Not 
many and most people don't realize they were BSW.  There were actually 
more BSC (British Standard Cycle) and BA fasteners.  Now there is a good 
trivia question:  Where were these fasteners used on T-series cars?

Of course Morgan continued to use BSW well in to the 60s.  Probably that 
is when their war surplus stock ran out and they had to order a new stock.
