Default Repro Welbikes finally ready

Should this be in her. If not, you can move it.
After some 6 years of troubles we finally got our production run of 21 Welbikes ready. On Sunday March 12 we handed them out to the new owners at Hartenstein museum in Oosterbeek near Arnhem.
Apart from one or two changes from the original, our copies match the originals, and interchangebility of parts should be possible. Wheels spindles are different, as well as most rear wheel parts, but even steering head races should be interchangable.

Regrettably I still have not mastered the placing of photographs, so I only can offer to sent these by PM.

For spares: we only have a few extra bits and pieces, but we may make some more tanks and wheels.

Default Pictures

Rob, just ensure your pics are no wider than 600 pixels, with medium compression as JPG files to keep their size to under 100 kilobytes. BMP or GIF files are usually too large. Anyway, any image editor can help you with this.

Rob,

I would be very interested in some pics of the Wellbikes, so I hope you manage to get them online.

Besides, about 1,5 year ago I talked to someone who said he was replicating some wellbikes with some friends. I talked to him at an auction of military modeling kits in Lier, Belgium. This doesn't happen to be you???

Hi, small world. It was a 1/48 scale model auction, mainly.
You must have been talking to Egbert aussems, presumably.

Anyway, PM me on rvanmeel@wanadoo.nl and I'll forward some pictures.
