Re: Nimbus non starter.....

No worries Ian.... there are plenty of versions of the Bryce pump..... I was worried this kit wouldnt fit, as the pump numbers on the plate were very worn. I just took a gamble.

Re: Scrap value jcb 3c111

Can you post up some pictures Steve. I need a seat post, that works. I have a brand new JCB seat, and need a good post to fix it to. Also, whats the dash surround like. Mines been melted at some point, and I'd like to do a good dash restoration, with new modern switches.
