Hey Stuart! Nice to hear from you. No, you returned the tool.......thank you......I need to put a deposit on it of £1000.....sure it would come back then! Same 'O here, having fun with the toys, and working toward casting off in 3 years time....at least that is the plan. The Aero' comp's have had to...

Hi Andy, Lovely to have you onboard ! Good luck with your facebook......sadly I am not into this type of social media, and since I am out of the Nipper circles I am not sure I will get to use it.....however, I, and others in the Nipper forum will do I am sure, and it will help any organisers of any ...

Hi Guys,
I have loaned my undercarriage bungee tool to someone, but can't remember who......old age probably. (no, that is not his name!)
Can who ever has it return it to me please?
Neil

No, I don't have Barrys moulds, but made my own for the longer crank on the Force 1 hub setup I had.....can't remember who has them now.

Hey John!
Just come across this post! Sorry!
Nipper has gone, very sad, but replaced it with an RV4.......very nice, and 2 seats!
Still got the last ever Nipper kit unbuilt, just in case the RV has to go.
Hope all is well with you.

As I recall the O ring dimensions are the same as the VW genuine flywheel O ring. I have stock of these hubs for sale to suit the CBR alternator if you wish to buy one. FYI: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=vw+type+1+flywheel+o+ring&rlz=1C1CAFB_enGB674GB675&espv=2&biw=1600&bih=810&a...

Hi Jim, You should not need to go to all that trouble. The only folded part is the back plate, why I am not sure, perhaps for support, but if you are going to run up a round back plate it won't have the support either. Really, you should find the couple of mm you need by modifying in the manner I ha...

Hi Jim, I found the clearance to be very close on G-ONCS, but managed to get what I needed by adjusting the clearance on the Leburg assembly, reduce the length of the pillars, the back of the alternator rotor was then very tight to the rearmost plate. Do away with the nylok nuts supporting the stato...

Hi Vince,
Thank you for the enquiry.
Sorry, the wing has gone.
I still have the last original unbuilt Tipsy Nipper kit in the world for sale though.

Hi John, Yes a mod' does exist for moving the seat back upper 2" back. PM me with your direct email & I will send you some info'. The best carb' for you is the Ellison who are back in production, I am not sure if they are producing the EFS2 which is the one you need. If you can find a secon...
