Re: list

[George Richardson <gprtech@domain.elided>]

Many of the parts for the Stag rear axles and differential,  and some engine, transmission, and electrical parts cross directly to TR6, TR7, and TR8 car part numbers. In some cases some of the parts
are listed by TRF as used in Austin Healy and MG cars. I think the reason that so few parts can be crossed to the 2500 is that there may be few parts in common.
