Impressive indeed Clive. I assume Roger (from Essex) has made a few extra for Christmas presents. I am sure he had many hours of fun working this one out, although I am afraid that only the rare Humber owner would truly appreciate it.

On similar note, we had an aero parts guy making bits for WWII aircraft restorations, he would machine a replacement part out of a billet of aircraft grade aluminium, but would include the moulding marks present on the original cast part. He had some terrific CNC gear, even greater attention to detail.
Rich.
