Mike , I believe Les and Byron are looking at reproducing Carbies .
It is intended on doing a run first in brass . then a second run in i think Aluminium .
These are to be complete ready to bolt on and run .
Not exactly sure what models they will suit .As most info goes in one of my ears and out the other .
I can enquire as to how far along the project is if you like .
But i would assume the Virus lockdowns would have thrown a big spanner in the works .

It would be great if they are proceeding with the project, though I know they have a million other projects on the go at any one time.
I'd suggest they just stick to making brass versions considering all the problems with the later pot metal ones breaking, they will not be cheap I'm sure, but sadly what happens is the 500 guys who all said they wanted one desperately, when they get told the buying price, suddenly they disappear back into the shadows and you are left selling only 5 or 6 sadly, instead of the 500 you got made. It will be interesting to hear a estimated price.
All the best
Mike
