After receiving several emails about where to procure Whitworth nuts, bolts, and tools, I've compiled the following information. The usual disclaimers apply - I have no financial interest, I have not done business with any of these companies, etc.
As to the Whitworth sockets, there are a couple of places that sell Whitworth sockets. My set is Snap-on. I've had it over 30 years! Don't know if they still have them or not.
Here are a couple of places you might want to try:
