How much is a water jet? I remember on one episode of "American Restoration" they went to a guy who had one in his garage and would cut out parts to order.

Post by: hoser1 on April 11, 2021, 06:51:32 PM: As soon as I get it I will post pics. Hopefully will be next weekend. Thanks for the welcome.
Title: Re: Crown plate
Post by: hoser1 on April 27, 2021, 10:09:56 AM: Any chance of getting two crown plates? Still have to build a front end for my CZ project. These would help as I will have to extend the headset from a Simplex and then I think it will work. I will not use the one from the Simplex I just bought. I will search for another one from a parts bike. The '37 seems to have been together all of it's life so I would like it to stay that way. Thanks, Garry
Title: Re: Crown plate
Post by: hoser1 on April 27, 2021, 12:37:43 PM: Sorry, I meant to say that I wouldn't use the whole front end from the 37. I will look for a complete or close to complete front end that I can modify.

Post by: kartjockey on April 27, 2021, 05:21:54 PM: Garry, pm your address to me and I will send some out to you.

Post by: hoser1 on April 28, 2021, 08:46:00 AM: Thanks, I tried to send the info. yesterday, but don't know if I did it correctly. Let me know if you didn't get it and I'll try again. Thanks again for the offer.

Post by: kartjockey on May 04, 2021, 06:51:44 PM: Whew! Out of crown plates again. Gonna make more when I can.

Post by: hoser1 on May 10, 2021, 08:25:59 PM: Thanks Tom, I got the Crown plates today. This is very generous of you. Will you send me an amount that I can pay you? This is one of the best sites that I've been on. Very friendly and informative. I've always liked the uniqueness of the Simplex, but never had the opportunity to play with one. This should be fun.
