Thanks. 
But pretty dismal. Just like correct round badges for my yds3.. I found a set of nos .. paid 200..  :eek:
But here I am..5 years later and still yet to find a correct tank.

This is the tank I have. Bought for an Ascot replica project but never used. Think it might be YDS2 ?

  :confusing2:
Dang.. I was so hoping..
But no it's not a yds3 round badge. They only made them for 6 months in early 1964... and are impossible to find..
Yours is a nice yds2 tank though and I thank you for trying.

Here we go again.. my freind is the gift that keeps giving!
I asked if he had any seats or forks..
He said he would look.
Calls a hour later..
$300 for all.
Those tubes with tape are NOS.. never used. The other..are perfect too

I'm rocking and rolling!

Well here's one to be impressed with.
This tach drive is 100% frozen and now buggered.  :eek:
Anyone else run into this?

soonerbillz

Not a good way to start the week  :eek:

Call from John Ritter....
After hopefully getting my cylinders cleaned up and good to go...

Too much rust..

Sometimes buying stuff on web bites you on the ass
