I was very tempted to put in an offer on this ste to replace the reproduction one I have on my Profile.

But then upon closer inspection, I noticed these....




So if you were considering it too, be aware  :daumenhoch:

Is that an original Terry, if so the design leaves a bit to be desired  ???
Also are the bolt heads usually so close the the corners of the cap or has it been "restored" and over polished?

Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.

Yep, that's an original Clint and very very hard to come by.

I also agree it has been stupidly polished but you can actually get it redone to leave a 'grainy' finish, which is what I would have done if I hadn't noticed the cracks in the back.

This is the re-issue of it...

Funnily, I was chatting to my mate just now about it and I raised the way he actually says that. It's like admitting they are there without admitting it  :knuppel2:

The same seller has a VDC Chimp listed as well.....   

I contacted him yesterday to advise him it's not a frame SET and that he should revise his listing to save himself/the buyer any hassle.
I've had no reply  :popcorn:
