Hi world I recently bought this guard to adapt/butcher to fit a 350 project. It seems a pity to do this if someone out there can Identify it and needs /wants it, in exchange for the correct item.

Hi
Seeking words of wisdom from Arielistas out there.
Just rebuilt this CP gearbox.
All parts are standard and in good order.
Is this gap (6mm/1/4”) normal? JB

Buy a RE and dream what might have been with Ariel.
I’m sure you won’t regret it.
I did Corsica/Sardinia then Morocco on such courtesy of LMA.
All the mod cons AND still with a kickstarter.
I was sold and bought a 2016 B5 Classic.
I’ve kept a couple of Ariels though!

Hi.
This machine is registered with DVLA.
If the current owner wants these
would they contact me. John

Guys, If it’s of interest. Years ago I found a very rotten ‘28 tank and rescued the oil tank.

Following on from this...I have a cast crank for a 350 project. It arrived with the sludge trap ‘cleaned out’ and the plug loose. It looks clean up there. The big end feels perfect but I worry about what detritus may have gone the wrong way. Rather than disassembly, to be sure, is there any thoughts...

To continue this thread on a similar theme.
A friend has asked me about case hardening.
Can powder be obtained in small enough quantities for
the DIY er and how easy is the process?

Could someone out there Id this piston?
No makers name only numbers as pic.
