Modern parts suppliers might be able to supply brake pads, bulbs, bottom ball joints, track rod ends, fan belts (but check the length as there were lots of different ones) and NGK plugs. Forget about asking them for air filters, oil filters, points, distributor caps, rotor arms, top ball joints and rear brake shoes.
Club spares have lots of NoS parts, re-manufactured parts and second hand parts. Just recently Fred has had radiators recored, asbestos free clutch plates and brake shoes re-manufactured. It is illegal to buy, sell or fit ANY asbestos containing products, even parts that you already own! Ebay is rife with asbestos clutches and brake shoes. so beware!
