if not anyone able to give and educated guess? i.e. someone who has done a full restoration?

Parts ...for what? A complete Minor in parts??? Whatever you need - the MOSS website is excellent - not always the best prices, although they v often have a 'deal' running - ie perhaps at Easter... http://www.moss-europe.co.uk/Browse/Com ... teTypeID=1

Sounds to me like you're after a full list of thread sizes for every nut and bolt to source your own in stainless possibly?

[bmcecosse]

Two problems with that - if that's the idea.... Stainless fasteners are generally not the correct tensile strength for any 'important' use (although v expensive High Tensile stainless fasteners are available from specialists) , and...Stainless fastener in contact with steel body parts creates an electrolytic cell in presence of moisture - and the STEEL around the fastener rots away......

Yeah I'm after thread sizes and lengths for new fixtures won't be necessarily be stainless
Everything that's come of is so corroded and spring washes no longer fit for purpose etc.

Body parts are all BSF thread - maybe some whitworth. Engine/gearbox/axle are UNF threads. There are lists of thread and spanner sizes at the top of the Mechanical section.
