Un-Obtainiums

10/26/2007

So I was talking to Don Mallinson yesterday and he asked a very good question.

I think it deserves a thread.

Don asked me what is the current list of known "Un-Obtainiums".

Good question - I've been so busy this year making parts from scratch
I haven't really ordered much from Ford. I know the rear headgaskets
were a problem earlier this year, but I've heard some have gotten them
lately.

What other parts have we folks been ordering that the counter man just
shakes his head and says "Sorry, out of print" ?
