Hello all I am a new member with a newly aquired 49 scott.All original but seems to be missing a cover that fits over the gearbox outrigger/speedo drive on the LHS
I would make one but not sure what it looks like or how it was attached, any help would be useful
cheers Clive

Hi Clive,

Welcome to you from another new member! I don’t know if your ’49 cover should be the same as my ’48 but I’ll try and remember to add a picture alter.

Where are you based?

It looks like it has been cast to me. I need to strip the gearbox out over the next few weeks so if you are patient I’ll post up a couple more pics of it removed.

If I remeber correctly there is some form of flange on the reverse of the casting which is a lot thicker than you might think. A peice of tinplate might suffice but the castings are not uncommon or expensive – I think that you might find that they are available form the spares scheme. Have a word with Graham.
Congratulations on your purchase – welcome to the wonderful world of Scotting !
