Perfect for Goodwood, or if you're an 80's football hooligan!

All the bidding was done with less than 24 hours, before the auction ended.

And as usual it all went crazy in the last minutes / seconds .

Its a nice little badge, but not that old.

Anyone want to put this on their car. It's currently listed on eBay 230888457266!!

I think they've used a bicycle chainring as the template. Maybe I'm out of touch but there ain't a lot of metal left there :o

Interesting indeed, but I was always advised not to number valves with a centre punch, paint is much safer!

I can simply not imagine marking valves with a centre punch. That's plain stoopid :shock:

Are they any good?

I have a 1430 with a race cam that I'd like to "protect" a bit. I was thinking about a very light flywheel.

Current one is an old ST one.
