hi phil
Thanks for the info.
I only have 3 of the hinges for set 343 but i`ll check to see what else I have.
yes the spring is intact on all of the plates that I have.I also have quite
a few spare plates with the hole in the middle in various colours a couple
of steering rods black and white.Plus other bits
I may be tempted to part with this lot.If any on is intrested please send me
an email with a phone number so I can describe the rest to you.
Jon give me a ring
Thanks duncan
