11 Set stuff

[Mike K]

There is a 11 set on ebay right now ..here in Aust. the asking price is exhorbitant to say the least .

I owned 6 of them at one time, the Aust AWA low quality sets . Ive sent 2 to the Uk and have one left here . Id never sell my 1940 EK Colé British made version, it is super rare and its going into my PU Morris if I can live long enough . The remote units are fairly common here . The Power unit plugs are unique and somebody was looking into making some .

Ive seen a few Canadian 11 set power supplies on ebay , painted wrinkle green which is unusual .

this is my friends 11 set page http://members.dcsi.net.au/clem/vk3c...1set/index.htm

Mike, post a link to the ebay set so I can watch what it sells for. If you come across a remote for a reasonable price let me know. The C8 needs 2 of them and I alreadt have one. Got it off ebay for $35 a few years ago.

The AWA version is fitted with the locally made tubes , these are different to the other versions

Quite a bit too high on the price tag! I see they had an offer on Dec 17 so it hasn't sold in 6 months. That should tell them something

No, they are not easy to find ! What about this one - Aussi AWA ? $1500

Cletrac is that definitely a C8 picture? It looks a lot like a PU. Although not a lot to go on. So far I've only ever seen two British 11 sets. One of which is in the signals museum at Blandford Camp.
My own in my PU8/4 is Australian, (thanks Mike). Ron

I visited the signals museum at Blandford Camp in Dorset today. Took quite a few pictures of the motorcycles on display and also the British 11 set. Ron

The offers was from me and I also called in and had a look. I did make another offer in person but was waiting for the boss to get back to me.
at that price I think it could sit for a while.

Ron, that interior shot is definitely a C8. My body and hoops are identical. It's pretty much the same as the PU.
That 11 set is still on Aussy ebay for $1500. You'd think he'd catch on that it's a bit too much.

Thanks for confirming the C8 David.

The Australian set that you have on Ebay equates to a little over £800. The only other British set that I've seen, was sold at the W&P show something like 12-15 years ago for £1000.

Obviously the British sets are much more rare. How rare are the Ozz sets becoming?
