Yep you're right. I rebuilt my engine with BP parts and 98% was Allmakes.

I agree. There demand is too great. As these vehicles age and more people get interested in restoring them the market will meet the demand. I owned a '57 MGA and could have built a new car from scratch with all the aftermarket parts available. Heck, I never had problems finding parts for a Scout i owned and IHC stopped making them in 1980. I wouldn't worry about it too much.
