So how's the restore coming along on this bad boy?

I don't suppose you are going to manage to be able to get me the spring cup dimensions I asked for, before you sell them, are you? 8)

Shouldn't be to hard to spin a pair of these up on a lathe... :D

I couldnt measure some of those dimensions correctly.

Lol seriously? :roll: I don't have the big bucks these are going to go for on ebay so you're not missing out on my money in the auction. But I can paypal you money for a ruler if you'd like? :lol: :lol:

Just the outside dimensions would be great so I can get them in proportion would be fantastic. Those are dimensions A and I.

Anything else would be great too obviously but I could probably guess. I can send you some RC10 parts you might need in thanks...anyway good luck with the auction.

Hahaha, no I wasn't (I was offering some bits and bobs I might have to keep yours going) but I don't have a NIB RC10 and if I did, I'd build it!

Thanks for the dimensions mate I made 4 pairs today on my lunch break (and by that I mean my boss is away so I started working on these at 9 and finished at 12, these are a pig to make and I had to make a tool to cut the inside piece out :roll: )

BTW how's the restoration going? Post pics or it never happened :lol:
