F1 alloy oil tank dip stick ??
bluemouse1006:
Hi
Doing a mad convention on a F1 where I'm using another oil tank the other way round with the back ( was the front ) cut out to cover the electrics on the left hand side ! Brackets welded on the frame to look very like the otherside . ( bare look without the covers )
I need an alloy dipstick to match the real one in the real tank ,the "project" tank had a rubbish plastic one ..
Not bothered in the stick itself is damaged only need the top
Anyone out there got a spare one for sale
Cheers Amos
Ill post pictures if anyone's interested ?

Hi
Photos as promised . I know all you out there that want a standard SOHC will be disgusted in me cutting up an oil can in this way ,but to be honest I bought a frame from Ebay that would have been scrapped or what ever, then I've bought all the bits to put another SOHC on the road all be it in a stripped down CafeRacer style, I'm sure some one will appreciate it out there .
As you can see from the photos I've had a scrap oil tank (badly repaired by someone a monkey must have welded it !!!)turned it around and then cut the "front" off so it butts up to the battery holder thus covering the electrics (well I have to totally rewire it yet!) hopefully if some one has an alloy dipstick I will be drilling a hole in the top and making it match the other real side.
