Default Aveling tractor safety valve bonnet

Does anyone have or know where I can obtain a safety valve bonnet and uptake for a Aveling tractor?

Thanks

Didn't Shamrock have a half cab in the 60's, Jim?

I think this is her possibly Francis Grover on the foot plate? he used to wear a beret.

Glad it all worked out ok for you Jim.

Regards

Jonathan

Cheers Jonathon, thats Shamrock alright with her half cab.

I remember that postcard as a kiddie.... who would have thought a few years .. OK many years later she would be mine.

Oh and if anyone out there knows the whereabouts of a suitable safety valve bonnet and uptake Im still looking for one.

Cheers

Hi Jim, The up tube is straightforward and the base bonnet would not be to dificult to fabricate if you cant pick one up. I cant say that i have seen one up for grab's. Happy searching.

Thanks keith,

I would rather fit the original style bonnet if possible but if I have no joy I will fabricate one as suggested.

Regards
