I'm thinking of changing my user name to NothingBloodyFits.
New or old, there's always something wrong that has to be addressed before I can fit a part to the car.

Hi...whats your name...please try to put it in the signature area with your car model.....back to your rant....if your not exagerating then you must be doing something wrong....most replacement parts ive used fit without any modification....if your talking about body panels then they need fettling....

Bought six new shock absorbers and bushes etc etc from SNG Barrett. They fit like a hand in a glove. Having worked on old cars for ages there are things that don't fit but many that do....in my experience anyway...
