Hi guys, Couldn't find the thread about where to get parts, so for speed, I'm posting this. I know a few people were looking for the bonnet (hood to you guys across the pond!) springs. They are from an MGB GT tail gate. The new ones, which are avaiable, are very slightly different as, instead of a chromed spring, they have a chrome cap, but are otherwise identical. If you want to be absolutely pure, you could always remove the cap & chrome the spring.
