Hi Bob,
If you do get the drain plugs cast please keep me in mind for 2 sets. I would also be interested in the female hubs that are welded in to the hull.
I need one full set of these + a 2 extra of the large ones.
Best regards
Richard Sanders

Rivits for spring Hangers
Hi Mithril,
I think I can help you with the rivits.
I will have a look at some originals, and machine up a batch on our CNC Lathe.
All being well Mid next week they should be close.

Fitting to original
Hi Tony,
Certainly there is a possibility that the modern 48mm bellow material may fit your original samples.
I will not be sure until I order in the bellow material. But with a bit of luck this could work.
I will keep you posted.
Best regards Richard

GPA resistor guage
Hi,
On my GPA I used a normal GPW sender and a normal fuel guage.
All 6 volt. Then I added a resistor in series with the guage to take the voltage from 12v to 6v.
Hope this helps.
Best regards Richard
