Travelling seller of spare parts (3)
I believe the answer is:
rep
'travelling seller' is the definition.
'rep' can be an answer for 'seller' (thesaurus). I'm not certain of the 'travelling' bit.
'of spare parts' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'REP' can be found hidden inside 'spare parts'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rep that I've seen before include "Theatre; fabric; salesman" , "what a draper usually sells" , "Salesperson" , "Corded fabric" , "Fabric with a ribbed surface" .)
