[s-cars] S-CAR-List Digest, Vol 61, Issue 10

[Mark Strangways]

Would "Bira" ever release the drawings to individuals to make their own 
brackets and hats ?
Not trying to get into the brake business, but there are competent machine 
shop all over the place that people could contract their own work well 
removed from BIRA.
Just a thought !
