MG MGA - Desperatly need

My disc brake conversion has ground to a halt, due to one missing key part. I am looking for a USED front left side (course thread) 1600 wire wheel hub (4 bolt holes. I have purchased two from eBay but they were not as stated , nor as the pictures represented. So I am taking a shot at maybe one of the members can direct me to where I might obtain one.

Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks to all.

Gordon, try Sports Car Craftsmen in Colorado. Good inventory of MGA parts (I sourced a coupe dash from them), nice people to do business with. They helped someone else from this board with a hub not long ago. Google for contact info.

You also might try Cecelia at Scarborough Faire (on eBay as NOS Imports). She frequently has used parts she's willing to sell.

I though that MGA WW hubs were fine thread (12 tpi) and MGB hubs were 8 tpi.
I have both on my car - fine at the front and coarse at the rear. The P/O must have used MGB hubs on the rear.
I have some spare MGB front hubs, but the bearings are different to the MGA.

Art,
Based on Gordon's post, I don't think he has wire wheels.

He did say "USED front left side (course thread) 1600 wire wheel hub "
