Y'all must be very young. By the 1960s Britian had

adopted (BSS?) bolts using
US wrench sizes but with slightly different thread shapes.

However, a few
Whitworth sizes were still found on accessories like

carburettors, dampners and
dynamos. Six-point US box wrenches would fit all but a

couple of them OK.


Thank you. Did you read that, BB?
