About Us

The Green Spark Plug Co. is the only company in the world that specialises in Spark Plugs & Accessories for Veteran, Vintage and Classic engines. Whether it is for cars, racers, lorries, motorbikes, stationary engines or even vintage lawn mowers the Green Spark Plug Co. has vast stocks of period plugs and/or their modern equivalents.

Tim Green from an early age has been consumed by his obsession with Morgan three-wheelers. In his teens he drove a Matchless Morgan as his everyday transport but soon switch his loyalties to JAP powered Morgan's. Today the all-consuming interest continues and he has on the road a "café" racer and several other three-wheelers in various states of road-readiness. Nearly thirty years ago, Tim was on the hunt for a supplier of spark plugs for one of his Morgan's and discovered that there was a need for someone to start a business specialising in Spark Plugs for Veteran, Vintage and Classic engines. How could he resist an opportunity that also securing a ready supply of plugs for his own use! Over the intervening years Tim has gained considerable knowledge regarding Spark Plugs and is recognised as probably the worlds leading authority. His background in engineering has stood him in good stead in understanding the complexities of heat ranges and propriety numbering system used by the world's spark plug brands. He is the man.

From starting the business by attending Auto Jumbles he also created a mail order service. Today he supplies plugs to customers all over the world. Over the years Tim's obsessive nature has proved to be asset in amassing vast stocks of now obsolete but new plugs and they are stored in multiple locations in the northwest of England. But he is still in the market to add to his treasure trove of Spark Plugs, so give him a ring if you have any for sale. He also attends a few Auto Jumbles as shown on the home page. But check first with this website - he maybe out racing his Morgan instead!

His youngest son Thomas is involved in the business and also maintains this website. Other members of the family including his brother Dean, nephew Robert, etc help out (or hinder) when needed. In a world of multiple-choice options - when phoning most mail order companies - it's a pleasant shock to be speaking directly to the man himself. Help him keep his Morgans running by ordering today. No order is too small and large orders are very nice to have.
