Thanks Serge.

Enjoyed looking at your site too - the MGA Hawk looks a great design, like a Lambourghini Miura!!

Anyway, the tool roll is exactly the design I thought it was. Originally I believe this design dates back to the late days of the MG YB as I found a very old one in an otherwise totally unmolested and original 44k mile MG YB last week.

Does anyone know where new repro MGA tool rolls can be obtained please?

Paul,

you could always try Ebay UK - there's usually one on there about every few weeks. Not sure how "original" it is, but might be worth a shot?

cheers,

A company in Australia makes tool kits for the MGA, except for the oil gun. I have not seen one of these kits so I cannot comment on the quality. Maybe another member of this Group has one of these kits and can comment.

Have you read Barney Gaylord's pages about MGA tool kits?

There is a USA company that I have found makes quality reproductions of the tools found in the MGA tool Kit. In fact, they can supply complete repo tools kits. I have purchased several tools from them and always been happy with the quality.Here is the URL http://www.britishtool.com

Although as noted above there are a few places you can get reproduction tools, it's not that difficult to put together a set of originals from eBay, and then you get the fun of the scavenger hunt. BTW British Tool's site went off the air a while back, and I don't think it ever came back.
