£29.95
We have two replicas at Amberley, one has just been overhauled (and to a very high standard of finish) and the other is waiting attention after the whitemetal disappeared out of one of the bearings

i also have one of these kits. fully painted and almost complete.
really like the idea of working brake gear but, on the two soul bars only one has a holder for the brake gear and its on the same side as the one with the holder for the actual lever so i need to knock myself up another one and align it accordingly.
I know if I tell Ivan he will send me out another but for the sake of a 15 minute job i think its not worth it. hes already been more than generous with me in the past so I think I can sort this one on my own.
