I don't mean to hijack this thread but does anyone make replacement arches for new age models as mine are rotten.

For any enthusiast that wants to do a proper restoration job, these are original OEM thickness arches.

Nothing. Cynical Micky money grabber.
I am old school.
If a few classics get repaired properly and my buddy sells a few arches all good.

To be honest, I am not sure Jay. I know he said they are more expensive than the current ebay offerings.

You know me so well.
FWIW, I got some Ebay ones about 18 months ago, and the bloke doing the work for me commented on how thick the steel was on the replacements.
