    NICE Sway bar fabrication is fun especially when there was no rear sway bar and you want/need one. Another fun aspect, customs clearing. We imported parts from England, getting a call from customs telling you they want pictures of the engine and wheel bearings you just stocked a hassle, when we got the first MGB body in the US and it's no issue till you figure out that you got a right hand drive not a left hand drive, fortunately the customer was ok with it, we just had to come up with all the other parts to convert his donor parts, an extensive list.
