No doubt you guys will be familiar with Aswr I only found out about them last week.
I went down to Aswr at Wilson st manchester last week for a engine mounting bracket £10.00 What a top guy working in there didnt get his name. A credit to the business nothing was too much trouble. I bought 1 or 2 other things whist i was there what a really helpful guy.
Another good place i am familiar with is Boundry garages at Burnley Terry is the man up there to speak with
does repairs and has a mill full of spares and very fair on price also sells a few cars all models seem to be covered.
