Wanted: G3 early girder fork crown stem and top lug

Guys,

Desperatly wanting to buy an early Matchless G3 girder fork crown stem and top lug to mount the girder to the frame. Without this my project is going nowhere. Will pay 100 Euros finders fee plus purchase price. Trying to get photos of this. Does anyone here have a good photo of it removed from fram?

Regards

Hinrik

I don't have what you're after Henrik, but I wish you all the best with the project and I'll keep my eyes open at Autojumbles for you.

Henrik,

I can provide you with photos and measurements of the forks. I have a new set of forks which have never been fitted to a bike and will show you all the detail. Sorry, but they are not for sale. Do feel free to email me at my home address. Cheers John Tinley

Bram,

Thank you for the tip, but just got an email from Johan. He says he does not have the parts....Maybe he does not want to sell it?

Crown stem. Please print out these photos and take with you to jumbles. I think the fork stem could of been the same on some pre war bikes.
