you can order direct from companies such as Namricks using the original BL or stanpart part numbers.
Some people are like Slinky's, they serve no real purpose in life but bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

I've had problems with new suspension bolts stripping at the correct torque setting, so careful who you choose as a supplier and check that they are the right tensile/shear strength.
Current fleet: '75 Sprint, '73 1850, Daihatsu Fourtrak, Honda CG125, Yamaha Fazer 600, Shetland 570 (yes it's a boat!)

Past fleet: Triumph 2000, Lancia Beta Coupe, BL Mini Clubman, Austin Metro, Vauxhall Cavalier MK1 & MK2, Renault 18 D, Rover 216 GSI, Honda Accord (most expensive car purchase, hated, made out of magnetic metal as only car I've ever been crashed into...4 times), BMW 318, Golf GTi MK3 16v x 3
