51 A7 Airbox
« on: 10.12. 2015 10:48 »
Hi all - I have been asked to enquire about an "Airbox" for a 51 A7.  A guy over here in AUS has shipped over his fathers 51 A7 from Scotland and is in the process of a restoration.
Are they available and what would you expect to pay. 
Thanks Russ.

G'day Russ.
He'll also need a sidecar as the air box is worth an arm and a leg *eek*.

Hi Russ, this chap has been trying to sell this one for a while and still got no bids the last time. Might be worth an email to see if he is open to offers. Cheers, John
