Hi there. I am George. Nigel son (Tassie fowler)
The Fowler has been hold for a while, but things will pick up soon. I have a few more things done.

The springs were fairly rusty, and broken. so made a couple up with parts of the other machine.

Welded on new side lugs and replaced bolts and sleeve.

I have made up a whole new dash panel, new gauges, push button start and even found one of the plates that were originally on it.

And the new ITR chains have arrived. :D the grouser plate holes are 3/4 but our plates are 5/8, I have decided I will make bushes out of 3/4 stainless tube.
