Re: [T3] gas tank overflow hose, etc.


The rubber collars that fit round the filler neck and seal to the outer fender
(wing) are filtering through from a source in Europe somewhere.  Typ3-Konnie had
some last year, but he hasn't replied to an e-mail.

I've put the NOS one and the repro next to each other, and will await results.
Maybe the first offspring will be smaller, but selective breeding will probably
result in a full size replica eventually.  ;-)

Seriously, I'm determined to find out where they come from - I suspect they are
the same ones ISP are selling, but without paying their inflated price for one,
I don't see how to be sure.
