Yeah thanks Joe, I knew the cowlings are fairly rare, I think the 2a was a short run but not real sure, trouble is the guy wanted to sell them all as one bundle which does not interest me, the onlt ones that took my eye were the 2a, a model 8 and a Villager, he had a model 5 series 1 also that I did not really want, made him an offer of $300 for the 2a and model 8 as I have neather of these but he said he would give it a go to get rid of the lot together but dont like his chances as he started out at $3500 then said he would take $2000 but for the quality and correctness of the stuff he had was not worth anywere near that so he said he has my number so you never know I could still get a call, will leave it a couple of weeks and give him a call as I would love the 2a.


If you dont make a mess you aint making anything.
