Wanted petrol tank and tool box for a 1951 plunger bike.
Needing renovation isn't a problem.

G'day Rex.
1951 was a year of using up old parts. My A7 plunger came with the smaller rigid type tool box so you can have either the latter large or the rigid type to be correct. The A7 tank is smaller than the A10.
Cheers

Thanks for the reply Muskie. I'm not concerned with catalogue originality so one that fits would do. Regarding the petrol tank I have a larger A10 tank on my A7 already, but sadly someone's run it without the bottom strap and it's cracked in the U around the steering head. The rear mountings needed some improvisation to fit too.
