boxofbits Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Hi all Wondered if anyone has a Surrey hood frame for sale. I've found you can buy them new from the usual sources but slightly wary as not sure how they compare to originals? Any feedback on this product? Hence looking forward to the further development of TR Gold! Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stuart Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Repro`s are fine, s/hand ones tend to end up going very floppy on the rivets. Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boxofbits Posted July 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Thanks Stuart, and good point about the wear in the rivets. Don't need more rattles! I'll order one up. Regards Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
