Vincent, I have a Parts Wanted ad on the Early Ford V8 Club website. I just received a message from
Mark Donald ‎<74markdonald@gmail.com> He says he has one and will be contacting me with the details.
If he does reply, I think I'll play with him for awhile and see where it leads. Might be entertaining.

He is the second scammer to reply. The first one was George Potter g1978@gmail.com He offered me parts from a 1936 Ford for ridiculously cheap prices and near free shipping. He included a picture of a beautiful '36 Sedan that he said he was parting out because he had upcoming surgery. Big red flag! Wanted a cashiers check made out to his daughter.

I found that if the email is from a GMAIL account, you can google it and it will show history of it from the web. that's how I saw your post.

Stay safe -Mike

Be careful of Mark Donald he emailed me offering parts for a bike that I don't even own.

Where did you get the shield? Is someone making replicas?

I used to make them in 2013.
Mainly for the single spares man in the AOMCC.
Following a email conversation lately with Jan I checked with the AOMCC and the shields (part no. 6170-37) are still on their list as for sale.
But in order to buy one from the spares you will have to be a AOMCC member
I dont have any -more- in stock myself.
regards, Vincent.

Try Draganfly. Mick Homes at Drags made a small batch and sent me one. It appears to be just an Ariel thing? Ron

Hi Ron,

Yes it is.
part no. shows it being used from '37.
I believe it was fitted to all rigid and plunger framed Ariels till end production.
Maybe not on the SQ4's but I dont know that.
Trick in making it are the rounded corners, not angle bends.
I made a mould for it to replicate those corners.

This is what I bought.
The base is different as to what would fit on a WNG.
someone knows whats it from ?

email (option): info@wetblast.nl

Yes Vincent. Triumph and Norton used the clamp on MCR1 regulators.
Jan can make the clamp and screw block if it's needed to make it complete. Ron

Thanks for your reply Ron.
I want to fit it on a WNG, those have another type of foot.
I can rework this base in to the 'WNG' type of foot but I might get lynched by the Triumph & Norton folk :sweat_smile:

like this is what I want:

email (option): info@wetblast.nl

I don't think there is much chance of being lynched, but in general, the type with two feet are a deal easier to find than the clamp-on type and are usually a slightly lower price.

It shouldn't be a problem to find a bolt-on type at a lowish price if you're intending to strip out the internals to fit electronic and aren't too worried about the condition.
