If some parts are in short supply it could mean that buying what is available new may not turn out to be good quality? I bought some Quinton Hazell branded track control arms for my Rickman (Escort mk2 parts)from a reputable classic parts dealer, albeit via Ebay, and they only lasted 2k miles before they failed! Had more play in them in a couple of months than the previous ones which were at least 12 years old, as I'd never changed them. Alas QH isn't the same 'guarantee of quality, it was 30 years ago.
