Its a refurb one from Ashtree.
Seems to be a straight fit but still requires some cosmetic work. Still have the old one with wire loom attached to do a straight swap when new one is painted. Then refurb the old one and sell. |

Super rebuild. Not at all jealous of the 130...
![]() ![]() Could I ask what media you are using to strip back the paint and rust? I am almost at this stage... |

Smaller steel parts I can fit in sand blaster cabinet; korund
Larger steel parts that dont fit: wire brushes on angle grinder and hand held sand blaster for hard to reach sections. Alu parts: I have then done by blasting company. Korund is to aggressive. I believe they use soda or glass pearls. |
