[DML] re NOS and other parts info

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

New Old Stock. Implies new, stock OEM parts that are original 
vintage, i.e. old parts that have never been on a car and are the 
parts intended for the car. But are old. Other related terms are:

New New Stock - exact OEM replacement parts that are still being 
manufactured (spark plugs, Fuel pumps for example)

Reproduction - parts that are being manufacture as close to original 
as possible, but not by the original manufacuturer and may have been 
reverse-engineered rather than from original prints. (Fuel system 
rubber parts, angle drives etc).

OEM - Original Equipment Manufacturer. The company that built the 
parts for the car company in the first place. The Aftermarket version 
is usually but not always indentical, in some cases the specs are not 
quite as tight on OEM aftermarket as on OEM via the Manufacturer (at 
least this is what the manufacturers tell you).
