Headlights
I can remember Hughes Auto Spares had these brand new in original boxes back in the 1970s.

Headlight trims
Keith,
I don't suppose they have any left, do they?  They may not even be alive now, come to think of it! T.

Dead as door nails.
That business closed around 1978 when I was overseas, with a huge amount of slow moving 'useless' stock like that going into skips.
Jack O'Donnell who ran the place died sometime in the 80s I believe.  Jack O'Donnell Quote:

'Useless' stock
Narrow minded bastards!
When will people learn. NEVER throw anything away....vintage at least. That's one good thing about the internet I suppose, you can find out quickly that something is worth more than you thought. Hopefully I can get it with a 'buy it now' before seller realises that though Almost makes you wanna dig up some old rubbish dump..........almost. Don't fancy all those used syringes, tin cans & crappy nappies! On the other hand, you may discover what happened to Donald Mackay!

Some of the stuff
From memory there were exhaust systems, wiring looms, instruments, transfer case power take off conversion kits, windscreen glass, Chev distributors, rear shrouds for the radiator, splash panels for Fords, including the ultra-rare one that goes under the radiator, known as the lower radiator shroud (see section K3 of your MB-F1, top right pic).

Lower radiator shroud
Keith,
Rare you say, eh. I have one of those somewhere I believe. Maybe I post a photo of it...............every time you show that bloody gear boot Did you come up with anyone who will manufacture more of those boots? Put me down for a couple, if you ever get any made!

Gear boots
Yes, Max has gone back to the manufacturer of his ones and has placed an order.
As for the lower shroud... I was pulling your chain a little I admit as I have a couple rescued from Hughes Trading. I don't think I've ever come across a blitz 'in the wild' with one fitted.
